If you think some curious spare-time white-hat hackers are the main cause of most security problems, you grossly underestimate the size and skillset of the black-hat hacking industry, and the unlimited profit-potential available in that field...
You can just buy a malicious USB cable, complete with a suite of payloads - from a US company, no less.

I hope someday some youtuber drops omg cable at my office for content. Preferably several.
And here I thought the main cause of most security problems was stressed developers on rushed projects where noone cares about security.
