Again... there was an exploit on the smart install stuff in 2016/17 as well.

But being realistic anything that has some kind of open port to assist autoconfiguration is a target to be exploited, just most people don’t switch it off or know about it to switch it off. (I guess most also don’t do basic security scan of their networks either and that’s external networks I am talking about)
