MITRE ATT&CK
T1059.005 Visual Basic for Applications T1204.002 Malicious File

The file is identified as malicious by ClamAV with the signature Ppt.Exploit.Apptom-10029459-0. Static analysis detected VBA macros, specifically an AutoOpen macro and a CreateObject call, indicating an attempt to execute code upon opening the presentation. The presence of PEB access and API hash resolution suggests sophisticated evasion techniques. The document body contains garbled text and a master slide title, but no clear user-facing lure.
