MITRE ATT&CK

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

The file is an Excel document containing a Workbook_Open macro, which is a common technique for initial execution. The macro contains obfuscated commands that appear to download and execute files from several URLs. The presence of ClamAV detections further supports its malicious nature. The script attempts to execute a batch file and a VBScript from the programdata directory, indicating a likely downloader or droppper functionality.
