I just dont get how cold wallets are vulnerable?

Is the subtitle not enough?

Malicious firmware can embed secret data into a public Bitcoin transaction, which the attacker can then use to extract a person’s seed words.

Because of their offline nature I was confused. I understood a Ledger or Tezer as something that when you unplugged it and there was no power and no connection it was safe. Obviously that was a super basic summary but hence why I was asking people who would have a much better understanding than me!
