MITRE ATT&CK
T1059.005 Visual Basic T1059.001 PowerShell T1204.002 Malicious File

The file is identified as malicious by ClamAV and exhibits high-risk heuristics for VBA macros, including an AutoOpen macro and CreateObject calls. The presence of VBA macros suggests the document is designed to execute code automatically when opened. The primary intent appears to be downloading and executing a secondary payload, as indicated by the 'Doc.Downloader' ClamAV signature.
