Icabdi.A is a proof-of-concept virus that infects Microsoft InfoPath 2003 .xsn files. When run the virus executable searches for local .xsn files, modifies them by attempting to inject malicious script, and then attempts to rebuild the .xsn file so that its tracks are covered. The .xsn file then sits in wait for a user to access the file and launch the malicious script.
