Zero-day vulnerability

Also called: zero-day, zero day, 0-day, zero-day exploit

A security flaw that attackers know about before the software's maker has a fix, so defenders have had zero days to patch it.

For example: A zero-day in a popular file-sharing tool lets attackers in until the vendor releases an emergency patch.
