One imagines the tractor could also be hacked destructively by some nation-state adversary.
But probably not to drive places randomly and smash into things. The better attack is to change some engine settings so the entire fleet is ruined just before a big harvest, so there's no time to fix them. Attacking people with tractors just draws attention to your compromise.
