The JFrog article is so sweaty...sort of "actually this is _good_ news". This whole mess points to the fundamental problem of running critical infrastructural services on open networks, and hoping that <your approach of choice to feeding/watering those services> keeps you safe. Just don't.

Right. There are a few projects that can be generally trusted with internet exposure - like OpenSSH, Wireguard, nginx/Apache. Most other stuff should be kept behind some kind of firewall because it is just too likely to contain a serious vulnerability.
