MITRE ATT&CK
T1059.005 Visual Basic T1566.001 Spearphishing Attachment

The sample contains VBA macros, including a Document_Open macro, which is a common technique for executing malicious code upon document opening. The ClamAV detections 'Doc.Trojan.Flop-2' and 'Doc.Trojan.Flop-1' strongly indicate malicious intent. The VBA code attempts to disable security features and manipulate the Normal template, suggesting it aims to establish persistence or download further malicious content.
