Fictionally, maybe the Mandelbrot Maze mentioned in Arthur C. Clarke’s 3001:
> Their approach was more subtle; they persuaded their host machine to initiate a program which could not be completed before the end of the universe, or which - the Mandelbrot Maze was the deadliest example - involved a literally infinite series of steps.

I loved that part of the book. I thought it was so cool how they thoroughly scrubbed the Internet of these dangerous programs, and then stored the very last copy on a disk in an ancient lava tube on the moon, just in case.
