They will think that because you published a security vulnerability, your
2525
project has a bigger problem of insecurity. As if not all actively developed

## Learn
29+
30+
Every security incident is a chance to learn. Mistakes are for learning. Why
31+
did this error slip through and cause this problem? What code pattern can we
32+
detect or prohibit to prevent this or similar mistakes to happen again?
33+
34+
This is hard. In my experience, most security problems feel like one-offs and
35+
rare circumstances that happened because of strange changes and your own
36+
stupidity. Seeing patterns and adjusting ways of working to prevent future
37+
flaws is difficult work but should always be attempted, to make the most out
38+
of every CVE.
