Isn't this a 30 day vulnerability since this vulnerability has been known for a whole month?

I hate the buzzword 0-day.

[–] lengau@midwest.social 13 points 2 months ago

If I understand correctly, it was exploited in the wild before a fix was available, which does make it a zero-day. However, the fix has been available for weeks, so while it was technically a zero-day, at this point it's just a vulnerability in unpatched systems.

It's not a buzz word. It's the correct term.

It's when you are given 0 days notice because it's already being exploited when you find out about it.
