The sample contains VBA macros, specifically an AutoOpen macro, which is designed to execute automatically upon opening the document. The macros utilize WScript.Shell to execute commands, indicating an intent to download and run a second-stage payload. The ClamAV detection 'Doc.Downloader.SVCReady-8f5af0a5f0da7070-9951542-0' further supports this downloader functionality.
