There are some other attack vectors. For example you download an audio recording or get one in your email and it starts up with a message that a codec is needed and you ALLOW it. Thing is that codec that is retrieved is malware. So in this case either firefox or your emailing (thunderbird?) started things.
I was under the impression that codecs were executables and as such, OS specific. I presume that a Windows codec/trojan could run under wine if you have it installed, but would it be able to do any damage? Enquiring minds want to *KNOW!*
