From The Jargon File (version 4.4.7, 29 Dec 2003) [jargon]:
zombie
n.
1. [Unix] A process that has died but has not yet relinquished its process
table slot (because the parent process hasn't executed a wait(2) for it
yet). These can be seen in ps(1) listings occasionally. Compare {orphan}.
2. A machine, especially someone's {home box}, that has been cracked and is
being used as part of a second-stage attack by miscreants trying to mask
their home IP address. Especially used of machines being exploited in large
gangs for a mechanized denial-of-service attack like Tribe Flood Network;
the image that goes with this is of a veritable army of zombies mindlessly
doing the bidding of a necromancer.
