Unpatched Vulnerability: Working Exploit
"Working in a white hat's lab" is not as urgent as "being abused right now in the wild".
. . . or maybe "zero day exploit".
Proposed: 1. A 0-day EXPLOIT is an Unpatched Vulnerability that we realize is being or has been abused. 2. A 0-day VULNERABILITY: no such thing. All vulnerabilities are either Unpatched or Patched. They start out in Unpatched status the moment some programmer creates them. They remain Unpatched until they are Patched. ------------------------------------- Marvin Simkin Manager of Information Technology School of Earth and Space Exploration Arizona State University http://simkin.asu.edu/
