Maybe I was unclear, I think the exploited hole was cut by the vendor. You hire team A of excellent security people to build you an impenetrable barrier. They do a sterling job and are appropriately rewarded. Then you realise oops, the new feature we're very proud of can't work with that impenetrable barrier. Hey, Jim, we need the feature to work ASAP, figure out a way to do that without removing the expensive barrier. And so of course Jim cuts a hole in it.
