MITRE ATT&CK
T1059.005 Visual Basic for Applications T1566.001 Spearphishing Attachment

The sample contains a VBA macro that executes upon opening the document. This macro, specifically the Document_Open subroutine, attempts to construct a URL by concatenating strings to 'tropitron5.ru/'. It then proceeds to open a password-protected document, likely a lure to trick the user into providing credentials or downloading further malware. The macro's intent is to download and execute a second-stage payload from the constructed URL.
