T1059.005 Visual Basic T1059.001 PowerShell T1059.003 Windows Command Shell T1204.002 Malicious File

The sample contains a Workbook_Open VBA macro that executes obfuscated commands. The macro utilizes CreateObject to interact with Wscript.Shell and Scripting.FileSystemObject, indicating an intent to download and execute files. Specifically, it attempts to run 'c:\programdata\jledshf.bat' and 'c:\programdata\sduoixo.vbs'. The reconstructed URL 'http://goyaluaa.vmeshaa.in/0v6kcnky/CG/' is a strong indicator of a payload download attempt.
