Threat actors actively exploited 138 software vulnerabilities last year, 70.3% of which were zero-days, while vendors affected by the abused bugs rose from 44 in 2022 to a record high of 56 in 2023, reports BleepingComputer. Moreover, the ratio between fixed flaws and zero-days declined from 4:6 between 2020 and 2022 to 3:7 last year, with the change attributed to escalated zero-day abuse and improved zero-day detection, an analysis from Google Cloud Mandiant showed.
