If a public tool can find a CVE in minutes to hours, it doesn't matter if some of the people using signed an NDA.

All it takes is someone how isn't going to report it to also find and exploit it

So the exploitation window doesn't start when it is reported it started at when the tool could have found it

I mean the alternitive, in this case, was security through obscurity, in which these exploits existed, could be reversed for years, and no one else would know .
