Lets say I have a USB storage device which has a virus on it that will
infect a Linux pc when it is inserted.
If I insert the USB storage device in my Qubes OS pc after login to
Qubes OS, is it then possible for the virus to infect my pc immediately
after I have plugged it in before or after attaching the device to a VM ?
I think it depends on how the virus works. For example if it could cause
code execution by overflowing the SCSI vendor/model buffer (I'm not
saying that this is possible, BTW), it could cause execution even before
anything is mounted...
