Attached is a file P-ORD-C-10156-124658.xls which I have seen two versions of (VirusTotal results [1] [2]) which contain a malicious macro that looks like this [pastebin] which according to these automated analysis reports [3] [4] [5] [6] pulls down an evil binary from:

det-sad-89.ru/4367yt/p0o6543f.exe
vanoha.webzdarma.cz/4367yt/p0o6543f.exe


There may be other versions of the Excel document with different download locations, but the payload will be the same. This has a VirusTotal detection rate of 1/55  and those previous reports plus this Malwr report indicate malicious network traffic to the following IPs:

193.238.97.98 (PJSC Datagroup, Ukraine)
94.73.155.12 (Cizgi Telekomunikasyon Anonim Sirketi, Turkey)
89.32.145.12 (Elvsoft SRL, Romania / Coreix, UK)


The payload is probably the Dridex banking trojan.
