They are a bit vague on this but I suspect all of these attack vectors start with LEOs having physical access to the unlocked phone. They then set up a trusted desktop without the phone owners knowing.
Which is clever, to be fair. Whether or not that's legal is already a court case. The law is so frightfully grey.
Its also a failure of the user's access control and operating security.
Once a third party has access to the secure environment, that environment is and will always be compromised.
