It is more: - Critical remote execution bug was discovered in Struts2. - The vulnerability goes public too quickly. - Hackers start scanning the Internet - Equifax is found vulnerable. - Vulnerability is exploited.

$14 billion company cannot convert what the servlet API gives into a method call on a certain object + a bit of reflection to update methods & print them into form elements. Super complicate!

If the $14 billion can't do that then they certainly cannot protect data.
