I have no idea what point you're even trying to make here. Are you suggesting defenders need publicly available exploits to defend?

That was kinda the purpose of my thread. I felt like the argument being made ignores the fact that while yes, the PoCs only save sophisticated attackers time, they also give capabilities to masses of opportunistic actors who would never otherwise posses them.

Nobody is ignoring that, we have to wrestle with balancing access to research. Many reasonable people (like me... I hope) conclude that the risk of opportunistic cryptominer campaigns is an acceptable trade-off to neuter targeted ethnic cleansing, espionage, etc operations.

I don’t think anybody would dispute around targeted and APT style actors. If we as an industry can raise the bar for attacks above “we have the weapons, loaded them and made them no skill to fire” it would help most organisations defend themselves.
