T1566.002 Phishing: Spearphishing Attachment

The critical ClamAV heuristic identifies the file as 'Xls.Dropper.QbotDocu12020-9818439-0', strongly suggesting Qbot family involvement. As an Excel macro-enabled document, it is designed to trick users into enabling macros, which would then execute malicious code. This code is likely responsible for downloading and executing a secondary payload, consistent with Qbot's typical behavior.
