As in title. What’s your experience with it? If something isn’t executable, then it has to exploit vulnerability in order to run anything malicious. But does it happen often with mp4, mkv and other files like mp3 or epub?

I assume that if I use updated linux, then I’m mostly safe?

    To my knowledge, Ive never downloaded any malware from a pirated movies/music/books. The possibility is always there when downloading from unverified sources. That said if you stuck to the sites listed in the wiki you should be fine.
