    There’s never been an instance of widespread malware built with a dedicated ability to persist on a Linux host through Wine.

    It wouldn’t be hard at all for a hacker to manually wire up linux-specific malware on a computer once they had a RAT running in Wine, but there’s no credible risk of windows malware automatically installing “linux viruses” at present.
