| has gloss | eng: AIDS is a computer virus written in Turbo Pascal 3.01a which overwrites com files. AIDS is the first virus known to exploit the MS-DOS "corresponding file" vulnerability. In MS-DOS, if both foo.com and foo.exe exist, then foo.com will always be executed first. Thus, by creating infected com files, AIDS code will always be executed before the intended exe code. |
