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?

    State sponsored hackers are a very small percentage of the threat actors out there. Also - they don’t need to exploit a zero day if you are willingly launching something on your machine.
