> Another little-understood property that make exploits more dangerous than bombs—and they definitely are—is that, as with the viral strain of a biological weapon, as soon as an adversary catches a sample of an exploit, they can perfectly reproduce it... and then use it themselves against anyone they want. On the other hand, once an exploit is used against a _good_ actor, they can neutralize the use of that kind of "bomb" against anyone. I'm searching for a good comparison about mutating codes and innoculations against them...
