What's the worst that could happen, finding an open DoD server and using it as a launching pad for hacking another nuclear state's networks? One that might get spooked and think it's the opening moves to knock them offline before a kinetic attack. Haha that'd be scary right?

Russia and China are constantly trying to penetrate DoD networks (and I imagine the NSA is doing similar), you are describing the status quo of the last 20 years or so.
