In fact, if something like that actually happened, it's likely a court would interpret "viral" more in the sense of "going viral" -- i.e., something that spread widely and quickly, as opposed to something that was spread specifically by a virus.

I think many a real court would (however much it conflicts with certain idealized views of court operation) in different ways depending on whether the issue before it was Amazon seeking to exclude the use as unauthorized as a basis for breach (either seeking damages or seeking to avoid damages for cutting off the entity using the software in a CDC certified zombie invasion) or the some other party seeking to use the fact that it was an authorized use of Amazon software to make a product liability claim against Amazon for harms resulting from such use.
