Source code viruses are rare, partly due to the difficulty of parsing source code programmatically, but have been reported to exist. One such virus (W32/Induc-A) was identified by anti-virus specialist Sophos as capable of injecting itself into the source code of any Delphi program it finds on an infected computer, and then compiles itself into ...
This is a list of proprietary source-available software, which has available source code, but is not classified as free software or open-source software. In some cases, this type of software is originally sold and released without the source code , and the source code becomes available later.

Metamorphic code is used by computer viruses to avoid the pattern recognition of anti-virus software. Metamorphic viruses often translate their own binary code into a temporary representation, editing the temporary representation of themselves and then translate the edited form back to machine code again.

Duqu is a collection of computer malware discovered on 1 September 2011, thought by Kaspersky Labs to be related to the Stuxnet worm [1] and to have been created by Unit 8200. [2] [3] Duqu has exploited Microsoft Windows's zero-day vulnerability.
1260, or V2PX, [1] [2] was a polymorphic computer virus written in 1989 by Mark Washburn. Derived from Ralf Burger's publication of the disassembled Vienna Virus source code, the 1260 added a cipher and varied its signature by randomizing its decryption algorithm. Both the 1260 and Vienna infect .COM files in the current or PATH directories ...
Trojan Source is a software vulnerability that abuses Unicode's bidirectional characters to display source code differently than the actual execution of the source code. [1] The exploit utilizes how writing scripts of different reading directions are displayed and encoded on computers.
