[TECHNICAL BREAKDOWN - DATABASE CORRUPTION]:

Since the initial 2005-2006 exhumation, the entity has moved beyond a static file exploit. In 2015, we observed the first instance of 'Recursive Database Corruption'. The Smile_Dog vector is now capable of re-writing its own metadata, essentially acting as an intelligent agent within the storage partition.

It no longer waits to be opened; it actively attempts to spread to neighboring files by embedding malicious code into the file headers of any document that enters the same sector. We are no longer dealing with a ghost in the machine, but a resident system administrator with a predatory agenda.
