--- Comment #4 from Jens Mueller <jens.a.mueller+kde at rub.de> ---
I'm using Kali.

Okular (xdg-open) does not allow you to *launch* Linux executables. It does
however allow you to *open* files with a default application (e.g., a text like
/etc/passwd file is opened with the default text editor; fair enough).

Now, if we install mono (a dependency of bless), windows executable files are
xdg-opened (via Okular) with mono and thereby can cause harm on Linux.
