MITRE ATT&CK
T1059.005 Visual Basic

The file is an Excel spreadsheet containing VBA macros, with both Auto_Open and Auto_Close subroutines present. The Auto_Open macro attempts to run a command from a specific sheet and cell ('Niola'!H1), and the Auto_Close macro appears to be a placeholder. The presence of embedded URLs suggests the macro is intended to download and execute a second-stage payload. The ClamAV detection name 'Doc.Downloader.Docusign112100-9908075-0' further supports this downloader functionality.
