Yeah but most of these are generic problems with providing a remote serial console (excluding LISH allowing multiple shared connections to one console, which is obviously bad).
They've now reset all the passwords and fixed the bug that meant some of them were being stored without encryption. So what we're saying is there was window of a week or so where only LISH users affected by the clear text bug may have been open to an attack if they happened to use LISH during this time frame and the attacker was targeting them. Not great, I agree, but could have been worse.
Hopefully, they'll change their setup going forward so that each LISH connection to the same VM gets its own console.
