MITRE ATT&CK
T1059.005 Visual Basic
T1566.001 Spearphishing Attachment
The file is identified as malicious by ClamAV with the signature 'Doc.Trojan.Thus-8'. Static analysis detected VBA macros, specifically a 'Document_Open' macro, indicating an attempt to automatically execute code upon opening the document. The document body, while appearing to be informational text about a tattoo convention, is likely a lure to encourage macro execution. The primary attack vector is the execution of embedded VBA macros, which are often used to download and execute further stages of malware.
