In both cases, the meaning is about a physical bomb (i.e., causing a physical explosion). A bomb attack refers to the occurrence of an explosion, while a bomb threat is related to a threatening warning about a possible explosion.
 
To refer to a logical bomb, the proper way should be to describe it as a "logical bomb" (i.e., a piece of code intentionally inserted into a software system that will set off a malicious function when specified conditions are met).
