Backdoor is probably the correct term, I guess we just got used to vendor placed backdoors.

Although I also assumed at first that it was vendor placed, even though I was familiar with backdoors from the past (Back Orifice, Sub7 etc)

Then maybe we need a more defined term? Something like 1st-party backdoor vs 3rd-party backdoor?
