It's just a microcontroller, if you take it apart you can access the serial port and reprogram it. Kind of useless at that point however, you could either make it not work or not work.

Oh right, Harvard Architecture with separate read-only code space.

The architecture type doesn't really matter in this case. It has one output, that of turning the heater tip on. If the device were to quit, it would simply go in the trash.

Code injection usually relies on being to execute data from RAM. Thus a separate code space makes this almost impossible.
