/ZEER-oh day/

Also known as: 0-day, zero-day vulnerability

Last updated August 7, 2026

Definition

A zero-day is a software vulnerability unknown to the vendor (or without a fix yet), so defenders have had “zero days” to patch before attackers can exploit it.

Real-World Example

Attackers may sell or use a zero-day in a popular browser to compromise machines before a security update is released.
