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

The sample exhibits characteristics of a legacy macro virus, specifically identified by 'RSN MACRO VIRUS' markers and the presence of the 'AutoOpen' macro, which is designed to execute automatically when the document is opened. The ClamAV detection as 'Win.Trojan.Johnny-1' further supports its malicious nature. The document body contains numerous strings that appear to be artifacts of the macro's operation or embedded data.
