MITRE ATT&CK
T1059.005 Visual Basic T1566.002 Spearphishing Attachment

The file is an Excel spreadsheet containing VBA macros, with both Auto_Open and Auto_Close macros detected. The presence of these macros, combined with the ClamAV detection of 'Doc.Downloader.Docusign112100-9908075-0', strongly suggests that the macros are designed to download and execute a secondary payload. The script itself appears to be primarily focused on manipulating sheet visibility and protection, but the presence of Auto_Open and Auto_Close indicates malicious intent, likely for initial execution and cleanup or further stages.
