I made the comment because, if you use something like Wine for Windows-originating tools, you have opened the door to all those nasties.
Even then, you can't assume Linux is immune, as reported here!
Not to mention the following quote from a SANS course flyer:
- Emerging Malware Tactics
According to Trend Micro, advanced persistent threat (APT) groups are exploiting BPF filters for installing backdoors, presenting new challenges in malware detection.
TechJury notes the adaptation of malware like RansomExx, highlighting the evolving tactics of cybercriminals targeting Linux servers.
But my question was trying to clarify your context and planned usage, to ensure the offered solution was a "best fit" for your context.
