A virus is something that copies itself. If something is copying a virus, it is infected.
So the virus would have to infect both android and the cockpit to spread from phone to cockpit to phone.
- tinco 11y agoNot at all, that's like saying floppy disk viruses happened because both PCs and floppy disks were vulnerable. Just imagine the cockpit to be a floppy disk. You plug your phone in, and your infected phone puts a file in the cockpit. Then someone with a vulnerable phone plugs into the cockpit, reads the file and is infected. Not saying that's how it happened, just that it's possible.
- vetinari 11y agoThe hole in the argument is, why would the second phone read the file and execute it? We are waaaay past autorun.
- tinco 11y agoWhy would the first phone read the file and execute it? ( this is an exercise for the reader, not an actual question )
