That is criminal copyright infringement for profit.

A proprietary malware author may get away with copying a line or a data structure or two here and there, but if you end up copying any substantial amount of free software, someone will notice that the software functions far too well for proprietary software and deduce that GPLv2 and/or GPLv3'd free software was used, find out and report that to the copyright holder.

As a result, doing so is pretty much gambling that the copyright holder is going to be a cuck and is not going to demand that you release all derivative works as free software or even demand prison time for you in court.
