Of course they have zero-days for mainline, I didn't imply that's not the case. Polish police likely has the bottom-tier devices they barely know how to operate (yes, I'm implying they're incompetent) and that's why they were unsuccessful.

"BFU (LUKS2)" postmarketOS is safe as there are no keys stored on the device. You could boot custom kernel + ramdisk to try and bruteforce but let's face it - it's not really feasible. They were unable to break LUKS2 encryption on friend's machines either.

You're right about runtime (or what you call "AFU"). pmOS has no protections against kernel exploits at the moment and that's something I really would like to change. The only thing you can do is to modify the devicetree to make USB controller work only in gadget mode, but then you can't connect USB drives, DACs, keyboards etc.
