They will be patched. There is also no indication that they 'be been known and exploited till recently. This was allegedly deliberately non patched to be exploited. Getting a system without bugs and security issues is impossible, you can at least avoid intentional compromise.

They will be patched. There is also no indication that they 'be been known and exploited till recently. Two of the three are being used in the wild, with Copy Fail being retroactively found at least 9 days before the disclosure. What are the indications that the BitLocker vulnerability is already being utilised? This was allegedly deliberately non patched to be exploited. Alleged by a guy who was fired from Microsoft. I’d take that with a pinch of salt. Getting a system without bugs and security issues is impossible, you can at least avoid intentional compromise. I agree! But other than one angry dude, not much else is pointing towards this being intentional - so far! Let’s see how things go. That being said, open source repos are being attacked constantly with attempts at intentional malicious code injection - I’m sure you’ve heard of XZ Utils? How many others went through and are being exploited without anyone noticing?

This was allegedly deliberately non patched to be exploited. Anyone can allege anything. And even if it really was intentional compromise, show me the alternative where that will never occur. Insider threats are always going to be a major attack vector.
