Is openSUSE susceptible?
Hmmm how convenient that the Russian A/V company has the Linux A/V software to "solve" the problem... and.. the "first" virus... is, on first look, no different than any other social engineering "virus" for Linux... exploits at least similar to this have been around on Linux for ages. I'd say - due to a rather convenient lack of information - that openSUSE is no more or less vulnerable to this than any other exploit on Linux. Basically... if you explicitly download something from an unknown source, and then explicitly execute it... you get what you deserve :-P This whole thing stinks of self-promotion and FUD.
