Uh, if it was that easy. I recently(!) audited a brand new system for deployment in what most nations consider critical infrastructure. They had just updated to the newest firmware supplied by a well-known and established manufacturer in that industry (not some garbage by a small company). That ran a dropbear ssh server version from 2016 with multiple CVEs, including an unauthenticated RCE. So essentially it's a root shell for anyone that can talk IP to that device.
I predict I will start seeing this terrapin in my Nessus reports soon, and stop seeing it when I enter pension.
