Comment on Notepad++ updater installed malware

The updater for the open-source editor Notepad++ has installed malware on WINDOWS PCs. The Linux ecosystem doesn’t allow for this kind of network attack because of signing.

There are quite a lot of packages running it through wine, on AUR, as snap/flatpak, and probably more I didn’t see in my cursory search. So the question is does this exploit work on wine I guess.
