VIM - running a shell command fails within a macro

Image
0 I have a list of items in a file, and I am trying to add an id on the line before each one. The id is generated by an external shell command and added to the buffer: :r !php _setup/getid/php item | tail -1 This works fine in normal mode. However, when I record a macro containing only the above command and then run it I get the error: Could not open input file: _set added to the buffer.

Why would an attacker ever want to sit on a zero-day exploit?

Image
92 20 I am trying to understand why an attacker would want to wait to use a zero-day exploit. I have read that an attacker does not want to waste the zero-day because they are typically very expensive to obtain in the first place, but it is not clear to me what is meant by “waste” here. Zero-days can be discovered by the community (e.g. security researchers) which would render it useless. In this sense, the zero-day has been wasted by the inaction of the attacker. Is there a risk with using the zero-day exploit too soon? It seems that an attacker would want to minimize the chances of the zero-day being discovered, and thus use it as quickly as possible. Question: What factors would cause the attacker to wait to use a zero-day exploit? zero-day ...
