Malicious researchers??!!??
"When a part of Windows yields up a couple of vulnerabilities, it draws attention, and many malicious researchers start looking at that part more closely," he said.

If they were malicious, they wouldn't have reported the issues, but just exploited them instead. The vast majority of the security researchers out there are just trying to learn, or help, or maybe get a little recognition to get their name or company known. It's quite a stretch to call them "malicious".
