T1059.005 Visual Basic T1059.001 PowerShell T1204.002 Malicious File

The presence of an Auto_Open macro and references to CreateProcess indicate malicious intent. The VBA script constructs a URL from embedded strings and appears to download and execute a second-stage payload. The obfuscated nature of the script and lack of specific indicators prevent definitive family attribution.
