MITRE ATT&CK
T1059.001 PowerShell T1204.002 Malicious File

The file is an XLSM document containing VBA macros. The macros execute a PowerShell command that downloads a file from 'http://ewpoatk-71.cf/wp-admin/import/sql/reqrm.exe' and saves it as 'C:\Users\Public\ayjrnayez.exe', then executes the downloaded file. ClamAV detected this file as 'Xls.Malware.Sagent-10035294-0'.
