Hi Markus,

Indeed, it depends on the use case. I find it quite unsettling to know that
common digital forensics tools, such as gdb and objdump, are vulnerable to
execute arbitrary code.

How much credibility would a virus scanner have that installs a virus only
because it *scanned* a malicious software?

Best regards,
- Marcel
