Holy shit, this really seems like something that you shouldn’t announce publicly
Time to disable firmware updates.
Oh, the halcyon days when you could confidently check “automatic updates“ and not have to worry about anything.
It was such a privilege when that finally became an option, and we should’ve known that they would abuse it as soon as they could.
So your telling me someone only has to pay off 1 27 year old to ensure they have a backdoor into most enterprise networks?
No. They have already told off a 27 year old to ensure that the backdoor(s) they put there on purpose are still there when he gets done. It's been worse than you thought for years.
LLMs will never take the job of the $5 wrench! Hit him with it til the back door is done.
