- chris_wot 10y agoThat's not the point I was responding to though. The OP was saying that bitcoin mining would be an unlikely motivation to exploit this, all I'm saying is that a lot of Windows malware is written precisely to steal CPU cycles in order to mine cryptocurrencies.
- igl 10y agoIt's a loose assumption based on a chain of unlikely events, not a distinct outcome like the title suggests. It's a ubuntu based subsystem. Apt-get probably uses their official repo and you would have to get your malware into that first and then make some windows beta-user install your new and unknown package.
