I think we're missing the point.  To my very limited knowledge, a zero day vulnerability is a vulnerability that is 
released into the wild before the vendor has notified its customers thereof, i.e. the person who discovered the 
vulnerability decides to release it to parties other than the vendor in question.

This will most likely lead to a zero day exploit, which is an exploit that "exploits" the vulnerability before the 
vendor releases a patch for that vulnerability.

This is just my view, but if it makes sense, use it as your own.
