No, the problem is that we don’t know how common it is. We only know about the ones found.

It's more or less impossible to prove the absence of these type of bugs, so you can always say "we only know about the ones found" because that will always be true. Either way, you're going to have to do better than "this could perhaps possibly maybe be a more common problem" if you want such a huge sweeping change as maintainers of open source projects to "be identifiable". What does that even mean in practical terms? They upload their passports? To who? Who and how do they verify this? How do we prevent edited passports? What about privacy? etc. etc. etc. All for something we don't even know is a problem.
