3Does this answer your question? Virus Encoded in Video, Is it possible to transfer a virus through browser video?, How to check if an mp4 file contains malware?, Mp4 virus scanners– Steffen UllrichCommented Feb 2, 2023 at 4:56

Yes. Not necessarily because the files themselves are "executed", but the fact that it is data and programs that load data can be exploited. It is basically saying "Can data contain malware?" The answer is "Yes." It is a matter of how you load the data.– NelsonCommented Feb 2, 2023 at 8:21

Is it possible? Of course. Can video have malware that executes without a media player opening the file? How, then, are you executing the malware? Malware isn't alive. It needs to be run by something.– schroeder ♦Commented Feb 2, 2023 at 8:53
