We define a critical security vulnerability in a router as one that allows a remote attacker to take full control of the routers configuration settings, or one that allows a local attacker to bypass authentication and take control.

According to the update here, the signing keys are supposed to be replaced by the hardware vendor. If vendors do that, this ends up being uninteresting from a security perspective - you could generate a signed image, but nothing would trust it. It should be easy enough to verify, though. Just download a firmware image from someone using AMI firmware, pull apart the capsule file, decompress everything and check whether the leaked public key is present in the binaries.
