But having state sponsored employees is so obvious, effective, and cost efficient it seems odd to assume it's not being done. The US found a bunch of Russian spies a while back.

But true, it's not right to assume any particular vuln is from spies.

Correct. But you have to assume the spies have vulns in there, either intentionally added, or, if they found vulns, they simply reported them to their agency, instead of their employer.
