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

The Workbook_Open macro is configured to execute a PowerShell command. This command downloads a file from 'http://45.66.250.101/iT/607188.jpg' and saves it as 'C:\Users\Public\Documents\eydbdiir.exe', then executes the saved file. This indicates the macro's intent is to download and run a second-stage payload.
