So as a new Linux guy that just has Ubuntu installed on a laptop running media server, sounds like I shouldn’t be worried since it is NAT’d behind my router and this worm compromises telnet and SSH connections. Am I getting the gist right? Totally newb here again.

Systems with exposed SSHd, but also properly configured, are also not at risk.
