Thank heavens for Linux and 7zip.

Gee, I wonder whether it's possible to have zero-day exploits on Linux and 7-Zip.

It is, but Linux has such a low desktop usage share that it wouldn't really be considered as a target for hackers. I believe that hackers really only target Linux servers, not desktops.

How would a hacker even notice the difference between a Linux server and.a Linux desktop? Those are the same thing.
