T1566.001 Spearphishing Attachment

The file is identified as malicious by ClamAV with a signature indicating phishing and trojan activity.

The document body is heavily obfuscated and does not provide clear textual content for analysis, suggesting the primary malicious function relies on external links or exploits.
