  • ClamAV: Win.Trojan.Veneno-2 critical CLAMAV_DETECTION
    ClamAV detected this file as malware: Win.Trojan.Veneno-2
  • Legacy WordBasic auto-exec macro marker medium OLE_LEGACY_WORDBASIC_AUTOEXEC

This is analyst-facing evidence for old Word macro execution surface, not a downloader or parser-CVE attribution by itself.
