Two months is still recently. Think about "In recent history we invaded
Iraq", "In recent times terrorism has become more prominent".

The real problem here is that "0-day" originally meant "previously undisclosed
vulnerability/exploit".  The term lost its usefulness when all the hacker
wannabe's started posting "I found a 0-day", when what they really had was
a "*yawn*-we've-been-waiting-18-months-for-vendor-to-fix-day".

Yes, it's a YWVBW18MFVTF-day. I know that.
