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

The file is identified as malicious by ClamAV with the signature Doc.Trojan.Panther-2. It contains VBA macros, specifically triggering on Document_Open and Auto_Close events. These macros are designed to execute malicious code, likely to download and execute a second-stage payload. The document body text appears to be unrelated educational content, suggesting it's a lure.
