MITRE ATT&CK

T1059.005 Visual Basic T1059.003 Windows Command Shell T1204.002 Malicious File

The file is an Excel document containing a Workbook_Open macro that executes a series of commands. The macro attempts to create a batch file at 'c:\programdata\jledshf.bat' and a VBScript at 'c:\programdata\sduoixo.vbs'. The embedded script also reconstructs a complex command line which includes multiple URLs, likely for downloading and executing a second-stage payload. The ClamAV detection 'Doc.Malware.Valyria-10004384-0' further confirms its malicious nature.
