1-day flaws refer to publicly disclosed vulnerabilities for which a patch has been released.
Just fyi, I think this doesn't make them (0+1)-day exploits since 0-days are exploits that haven't even been disclosed yet but are discovered by someone being on the receiving end. Kind of catchy but bad name in that case imo. But maybe I shouldn't say anything since I don't have a better name.

Lol, I completely agree with you here.
Possible identifiers could be for example their most intuitive abbreviations (not claiming they are good ones):
NDVs (non-disclosed vulnerability) vs PDV (publicly disclosed vulnerability)
