> Valuations for server-side vulnerabilities are low, because vendors don't compete for them.
Why don't they?
Because as soon as they are patched, they are worthless.
People pay for vulnerabilities because they want to exploit them - if there’s a limited window, there’s limited demand.
Even if there’s something worth a lot behind the exploit, a potential criminal would be better off obtaining whatever that is and selling it instead.
