MITRE ATT&CK
T1566.002 Phishing: Spearphishing Attachment T1204.002 Malicious File: Malicious File

The file is identified by ClamAV as 'Xls.Dropper.QbotDocu12020-9818439-0', strongly indicating it functions as a dropper for the Qbot banking trojan. The primary attack pattern involves luring the user into opening a malicious Excel file, which then executes a secondary payload. No VBA or scripts were explicitly extracted, but the ClamAV detection implies embedded malicious content designed for payload execution.
