Much more likely to gain access via a compromised desktop, or smart phone.
The NAS runs its own OS and is just as vulnerable as a desktop or smartphones. They’re all computers.
Yes, but the other computers I listed have a person behind them that will click things. Like a "close" button that actually installs malware. A NAS does not click things.
True, but, what if you host VMs on the NAS? Or data for some application? Those can result in an attacker running code on them, and from there, in most homelab networks, i assume is a short way from owning everything in your network
When you turn your NAS into a hosting platform, it is no longer just a NAS.
