Very interesting article.

What about that precompiled .ssh/authorized_keys with user z00163152@HUAWEI-627FB9A3 mentioned in Part 3?

Any reason why a router firmware would permit root access to anyone at all? Definitely sounds like a backdoor to me.

That was the worst part. I would have that bombshell as the lede. And then delete it if possible.
