MITRE ATT&CK
T1566.002 Phishing: Spearphishing Attachment

The file is an Excel spreadsheet identified by ClamAV as 'Xls.Dropper.QbotDocu12020-9818439-0', indicating it functions as a dropper. The primary attack vector is likely social engineering to convince the user to enable macros, which would then execute malicious code. Without further script or body content, the exact payload and delivery mechanism remain unknown, but the heuristic strongly suggests a Qbot variant.
