MITRE ATT&CK

T1566.002 Spearphishing Attachment T1059.005 Visual Basic T1059.003 Windows Command Shell

The file is an OOXML document containing VBA macros, specifically a Workbook_Open macro, which is a common delivery mechanism for malware. The script attempts to execute a batch file and a VBScript from the 'c:\programdata' directory. The VBScript is obfuscated but appears to be responsible for downloading and executing a second-stage payload from one of the provided URLs. The presence of the 'Doc.Malware.Valyria-10004384-0' ClamAV detection further confirms its malicious nature.
