MITRE ATT&CK
T1566.001 Spearphishing Attachment T1059.005 Visual Basic

The file is an OOXML document with a high-confidence detection for a dropper payload. A Document_Open macro was detected, indicating that malicious code executes automatically upon opening the document. The ClamAV detection name 'Doc.Dropper.HexEncodedEXEHeader-9789587-1' strongly suggests the document's purpose is to drop and execute a secondary payload. No specific malware family could be identified.
