linux isnt immune to viruses even though its not as bad as windows
what should i do to be safe if i have a safe browser, vm, but pirate and download risky things? i know its a vm but i still dont want to have to delete everything in the vm if something happens. also the malware doesnt go to the router and spread rigt???
I’m not sure what the mechanism is, but I discovered the issue by empirical testing a few months ago, and I’m still trying to sort it out and make the LAN visible to that VM. Granted, I haven’t been able to put much time into it, but I keep ending up down among the weeds of iptables/nftables, with all the documentation either out of date or not intended for a host using netifrc for network management (or both). I’ll probably have to ask on the Gentoo boards eventually.
