MITRE ATT&CK
T1566.002 Phishing: Spearphishing Attachment

The file is identified by ClamAV as 'Xls.Dropper.QbotDocu12020-9818439-0', strongly suggesting it belongs to the Qbot family and functions as a dropper. The primary attack pattern involves luring a user into opening a malicious Excel file, which then likely executes a secondary payload. No document body or scripts were extracted, but the heuristic detection is sufficient for this assessment.
