Tech journalists insisting on calling these "zero-days" (which, to its credit, CNet changed, though Ars and ZDNet are guilty of it) is really kind of irritating.
A zero-day is, by definition, an exploit that the vendor has had zero days to react to. It's not just an unpatched vulnerability with a proof of concept exploit available for it.
Apple has been aware of these issues since October.
