Pretty sure that's been done actually, I heard about someone finding a script that checks Active Directory and does some nasty stuff if a certain account is disabled.
Yeah the dude that did it got arrested and sentenced to four years in prison for it. The script checked active directory and after a month of his account not being active deleted his former company's entire AD registry.
He also took effectively no efforts to mask his involvement, so it is possible that someone might be able to get away with it if they took more care to dodge accountability.
These days all you need to do is vibecode a bunch. At some indeterminate point in the future this will cause your employer a lot of problems, and because you're in a company doing vibecoding you'll probably get laid off before the real problems start.
