MITRE ATT&CK
T1059.001 PowerShell T1204.002 Malicious File

The sample is an XLSM file containing VBA macros. The document body explicitly shows a PowerShell command designed to download an executable from 'sparepartiran.com' and then execute it. This PowerShell command is a clear indicator of a downloader attack pattern. The ClamAV detection further confirms the malicious nature of the file.
