Most Linux exploits are using some Linux viruses (file infectors, worms, trojans, etc) to spread into the system or to gain control. Just take a look at latest PHP vuln exploits and you'll see that almost all of them are using a variant of RST.A or RST.B to infect other binaries and to install rootkits.
