Comment Re:Zero day already in the wild? (Score 4, Informative) 76

(scratches head) How can a flaw be called zero-day and already be exploited in the wild?

Because a zero-day is any flaw made public before the developer knows about it. One of the main ways this happens is by noticing that hackers are breaking into systems using a heretofore unknown exploit.
