T1059.005 Visual Basic

The file is identified as malicious by ClamAV with the signature Doc.Trojan.Ethan-20 and Doc.Trojan.Ethan-1. Static analysis detected VBA macros within the document. The document body appears to be a procurement protocol for medical supplies, likely a lure to encourage the user to enable macros. No specific IOCs were extracted beyond the detection signatures.
