MITRE ATT&CK
T1059.005 Visual Basic

The sample is a malicious OLE document containing VBA macros, including AutoOpen and Document_Open, which are designed to execute automatically. The presence of VirtualAlloc API calls suggests the macro likely allocates memory for and executes shellcode. The specific payload and its ultimate goal could not be determined due to the lack of further script details or network indicators.
