It is French and it can be litteraly translated as "the worm is in the fruit". It means that, with a given situation, problems / bad things have already happened and that it will be hard to solve the situation.
Or for instance if you take the movie "The Untouchables", it would mean that one of them had been corrupted. Thus it would have been hard to state that they really were "Untouchables"
