Vendors can ask for a 14-day grace period before disclosure if they are working on a fix, and deadlines that expire during weekends and holidays will be pushed to the next business day. The Project Zero team will now also ensure that bugs that go past the deadline get a Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures (CVE) identifier pre-assigned through MITRE before they are disclosed to prevent confusion.
