MITRE ATT&CK
T1566.002 Spearphishing Attachment T1059.005 Visual Basic

The file is an Excel spreadsheet containing VBA macros, specifically an Auto_Open macro, which is a common technique for executing malicious code upon opening. The ClamAV detection 'Doc.Downloader.Docusign112100-9908075-0' strongly suggests a downloader functionality. The embedded URLs are likely used to fetch and execute additional malicious payloads. No specific family could be identified, but the overall behavior points to a macro-based downloader.
