Sure, the ones officially contributed by the NSA. What you have to wonder is how much code was contributed by some seemingly normal community member that is actually a front for the NSA to introduce subtly flawed code that they can use to their advantage while being plausibly just a bug?

There are those who suspect Heartbleed came about this way.
