MITRE ATT&CK
T1566.001 Spearphishing Attachment T1059.001 PowerShell T1204.002 Malicious File

The file is an RTF document containing OLE object data and an \objupdate directive, which forces OLE activation. ClamAV identifies this as 'Rtf.Dropper.Agent-7643114-0'. The presence of \objdata and \objupdate strongly suggests the document is designed to drop and execute a secondary payload. The document body is heavily obfuscated and does not provide clear textual lures.
