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

The sample is an OOXML document containing a VBA project with an AutoOpen macro, indicating an attempt to automatically execute code upon opening. The presence of a CreateObject call suggests the macro likely attempts to download and execute a second-stage payload. ClamAV detection as 'Doc.Downloader.BlueWord12213-9918951-0' further supports this downloader functionality.
