OneNote

With the disablement of VBA macros, threat actors have turned to using OneNote attachments as a new way to install malware on an endpoint. OneNote attachments can contain embedded file formats, such as HTML, ISO, and JScripts, which can be exploited by malicious actors. OneNote attachments are particularly appealing to attackers because they are interactive and designed to be added on to and interacted with, rather than just viewed. This makes it easier for malicious actors to include enticing messages and clickable buttons that can lead to infection
