N-days are vulnerabilities that have already been publicly disclosed, but only patched on some devices. They can be more dangerous than zero-day vulnerabilities as the patches provide a roadmap to the bugs. The process of reverse-engineering a vulnerability from a patch has historically been slow and specialized work, but AI can accelerate and automate the process. This means anyone in the patch gap today faces a much larger threat than before.
