MITRE ATT&CK
T1204 Malicious Link T1059 Command and Scripting Interpreter

The file is an Excel document flagged by ClamAV as 'Xls.Dropper.QbotDocu12020-9818439-0', strongly suggesting it functions as a dropper for the Qbot banking trojan. The primary attack vector is likely social engineering to convince the user to enable macros, which would then initiate the download of a secondary payload. No document body or scripts were extracted, but the heuristic is highly indicative of Qbot's typical delivery mechanism.
