OK, let's debate a definition. Today, let's talk about "vulnerability" in software. Your product, (let's call it A) uses a library (which we'll call X). X has a load of features. Among those is some function, "someFunc" which has a bug. It's supposed to be safe to call with untrusted data... but some clever researchers have found that they can craft input that results in remote code execution (RCE). X has a vulnerability. Does A?

Back when Raquel Vélez was my boss at npm, inc., she had a name for when somebody would give you an ill-defined task and then would get upset when you didn't do it "right." She called it "Bring me a rock." When I asked her what that meant, she would say "Bring me a rock... no, not that one." It was a pretty clear example. She recognized quickly that I hate, with all of me, "Bring me a rock." It's the least good game. Anyway, was thinking about that tonight. Everybody should use that.
