MITRE ATT&CK
T1059.005 Visual Basic

The file exhibits characteristics of a legacy macro virus, specifically identified as a 'RSN MACRO VIRUS Goat file' with WordBasic macro virus markers. ClamAV also detected it as Win.Trojan.Wazzu-35. The presence of these markers and the detection strongly indicate a malicious intent, likely to spread through macro execution within Microsoft Word documents.
