I bet they just threw it into the DMZ, turns out when you park your car in a bad part of town and leave all the windows open and the doors unlocked, bad stuff happens to it
And the keys in it, with a light on top flashing "look at me!"
Honestly, I'd be a little surprised if anyone actually did anything to it.
Not for lack of wanting to, but because they, like me, would probably just assume it's a bait car and cops are 5 seconds away with a kill switch.
There's tons of botnets in countries that don't care about cyber crime just waiting for this sort of thing to be put on the internet. They'd just autopwn as soon as it was discovered and don't really give a shit since the cops can't even touch them.
