Merry CHRISTMA EXEC

Once again, we’d like to wish our readers Merry Christmas with a reference to the 1986 CHRISTMA EXEC worm.

Here’s a link to January 1987 Risks Digest, discussing the worm.

And here’s a link to the original source code for this worm. Normally we wouldn’t link to malware code, but hey, it’s 23 years old.
