That there is a preexisting way for people to get hacked doesn't seem to be a reason to dismiss other, new ways for people to get hacked.
First, I'm not dismissing anything. I'm just saying it's not the most significant concern. Second, Mythos doesn't create "new ways". You already have plenty of vulns to go after, and you can write exploits for them (or pay someone). It just lowers the cost / commoditizes the toolkit. It's not the first time it has happened - the trend goes all the way back to Metasploit or before.
And again, I'm not saying it doesn't matter. All I said is that it's probably not the #1 thing to lose sleep over.
