MITRE ATT&CK
T1059.005 Visual Basic T1204.002 Malicious File T1059.003 Windows Command Shell

The critical heuristic 'OLE_VBA_SHELL' and the presence of a 'document_open' macro indicate malicious intent. The VBA script within 'macros.bas' explicitly calls the Shell function to execute 'c:\programdata\coreProc.hta', which is likely a second-stage payload. The ClamAV detection further confirms the malicious nature of the file.
