Am I reading it correctly that it only affects remote admin? Isn't that generally considered to be a Very Bad Idea? My home network has remote admin disabled, but with VPN access I can remotely manage it, which is (afaik?) a way more secure method than having public https access to your network gear...

Still pretty unimpressive by Cisco to basically just say "sucks to be you" to the owners. I get that it's EOL but still.
