If I were a hacker in the same situation I'd keep looking for a more realistic strategy.





Unless it's some crazy 4D chess and the hackers are trying to distract Dell's security team while they are deploying another real attack.

Does anyone seriously think that attackers won’t try every single potential avenue regardless of how “realistic” it seems?

Yes. I wouldn't be burning write access to Dell's update servers on something so unlikely to achieve an objective.
