In a dimly lit room, a security researcher (or a state-sponsored hacker, or a malware developer) downloads the exact same file . But they don't put it on a corporate network. They put it on an isolated, air-gapped hypervisor. They boot it up, but instead of configuring it to protect a network, they start beating it up. They run fuzzing tools against its web interface. They send malformed packets to its SSL VPN portal. They are trying to find the flaw that Build 1262 was supposed to fix—or, if they are fast enough, a new flaw that Build 1262 introduced. Once they find it, they write an exploit, and the very device designed to protect networks becomes the skeleton key to break into them.
