Comment on Two New Windows Zero-Days Exploited in the Wild — One Affects Every Version Ever Shipped

Basically, the company had to rush to patch it because it was already being exploited. It means black-hat hackers found it and exploited it before the white/grey-hat hackers reported it. If white-hat hackers found it first, they’d have already alerted the company and given time to patch it before they announced the vulnerability. But since the black-hat hackers found it first, it was a 0-day.
