Proprietary software has its own version of that problem where companies are informed of a vulnerability by researchers and then just don't bother to fix it until the researchers are forced to publish it ๐Ÿ˜…

I'd guess the number of competent eyes on large foss projects used by companies is probably higher than more consumer focused stuff like Nextcloud (does Nextcloud position itself as a corporate tool? Maybe it does and I'm just not aware of it...) but I'm not the most knowledgable on this subject so I could certainly be mistaken

Edit: I'm dumb and still mostly asleep, just saw its literally a nextcloud article lol

Or they just call it a under documented or undocumented feature (thinking specifically about the Azure feature to let you access other tenants if they are using that Tenable reported last June).
