MITRE ATT&CK
T1059.005 Visual Basic T1566.001 Spearphishing Attachment

The file is a Microsoft Word document containing VBA macros, specifically a Document_Open macro, which is a common technique for initial execution. ClamAV detections indicate it's a known malicious document type. The presence of a Document_Open macro strongly suggests the intent is to execute code upon opening, likely to download and execute a second-stage payload. No specific family could be identified.
