MITRE ATT&CK
T1059.005 Visual Basic T1105 Ingress Tool Transfer

The sample is an OOXML document containing VBA macros. The AutoOpen macro is present and utilizes the URLDownloadToFile function, indicating it is designed to download and execute a second-stage payload from a remote source. The ClamAV detection 'Doc.Downloader.GreenBox5-9139204-0' further supports this downloader functionality. The benign URLs extracted are likely part of the document's legitimate structure and not indicative of malicious intent.
