Malicious Scripts

Malicious script is derived from a bug in Dark Signs V0.91 and earlier. It allows certain commands to leave the Dark Signs directory and begin editing files outside of the game. Scripts which use these commands are termed MS (Malicious Script).

To prevent these from becoming an epidemic, the AMS (Anti-Malicious-Script) Scanner was developed before the capability of MS became a problem. In other words, we wrote the Anti-Virus software before the virus fully developed.

The use of MS has been prevented in all version since and including v0.92 but the AMS Scanner is still useful to have around. There is the chance a new style of MS may emerge at which the AMS Scanner will be updated to compensate for the new commands.

Currently, 4 MS are known about.

MS Name Detected by AMS Scanner?
ChangeDir Yes
HiddenChangeDir Yes
Worm Yes
CommentGuard Yes
startup.script Protection Yes

If any more MS are found they will be posted here and a spotter will be developed.
