Linux.Winter
Description Linux.Winter
This is a harmless non-memory resident parasitic Linux virus. It is extremely small in size for a Linux virus - just 341 bytes (in the known virus version).
When an infected file is run, the virus gains control, searches for ELF files (Linux executable files) in the current directory, then writes itself to the middle of the file to the non-used "Notes section" if there is one and it has enough size. While infecting, the virus overwrites "Notes" data in the section, but the program runs properly after that.
The virus contains the text string:
LoTek by Wintermute
The virus has a routine that sets a host name (computer name) to "Wintermute", but this routine never gains control.
Linux.Zipworm
Description Linux.Zipworm
It is harmless Linux virus affecting ZIP archives.
When the virus is run, it looks for ZIP archives in current directory and add its copies to there. While infecting the virus does not use any external ZIP processing tool, but parses ZIP internal formats by itself. The virus files in archives have one of five possible names:
Ten motives why linux sux!
Why Windows is superior to Linux!

The virus also contains the "copyright" text:
