MITRE ATT&CK
T1059.005 Visual Basic
T1566.001 Spearphishing Attachment
T1140 Deobfuscate/Decode Files or Information
The file contains VBA macros, including a Document_Open macro that uses CreateObject, indicating malicious intent. ClamAV identifies it as 'Doc.Downloader.EmotetRed02224-9938637-0', strongly suggesting Emotet. The VBA script is heavily obfuscated but its structure and the presence of a Document_Open macro are typical for Emotet downloaders that execute secondary payloads.
