Not probable. There's a few remote exploits for wget, but none would affect me, AFAIK. My /tmp is mounted with nodev noexec nosuid, and I create a directory for every "client".
I usually download sites pretending to be my bank, or credit card, or some other entity I am not related to, and they usually ask me for login credentials, credit card information or to download and execute something. They are targeting clueless Windows' users, not savvy Linux users hunting malware sites.
Next time I will use telnet to the server from inside a chroot in a Docker container, running on a virtual machine on a diskless computer booting from DVD, connected to the Starbucks WiFi. Just to be safe.
Maybe the DVD could be Qubes[1] for even more isolation. [1] https://www.qubes-os.org/ Cheers, Jamon
