Answer: No. Vulnerabilities are weaknesses that also may be result of improper implementation of an otherwise well designed project (e.g., a safe made of a defective alloy) or a control misconfiguration (e.g., a password policy that enforces alphanumeric characters but limits the size to a small value).
