The full picture was horrifying. The malware—which Aris mentally christened "Frostwyrm"—had been dormant for six months. It had entered via a poisoned PDF attachment on a climate scientist's email (caught by ESET's email filter, but the attachment was a zero-day exploit that slipped past the initial scan). It had then used a UEFI rootkit to survive reboots. The NOD32 engine, however, had a unique property: it scanned memory pages in real-time, not just files. When Frostwyrm finally tried to execute its final, destructive payload—the command to rewrite the valve firmware—the heuristics engine saw a piece of code that looked like a file infector but acted like a logic bomb. Hash 803191 was its unique signature.
