Well theoretically any piece of malware can spread to a SIM card (or any device capable of intercommunication) since interpreting signals between them will always leave room for errors. If these are exploitable then a person might be able to load malicious code onto it. However back to the real world this is near impossible since any malware capable of infecting a wide range of mobile devices are by far too large for a SIM card to hold (as in my SIM card having a capacity of 64K). Also as far as I know OEMs usually do not publish documentations about their SIM cards’ internals hence infected SIM cards, in theory, can exist, but in real life they don’t. For now.
Is Sim Card Manipulation Possible?
