Quick fixes often focus narrowly on the reported issue without considering broader system behavior. Skipping design review or regression testing makes it easy to introduce new weaknesses.
Security fixes should be treated like any other code change, with proper testing and review. Otherwise, one vulnerability is simply replaced by another.
Takeaway: Secure fixes require the same discipline as new features.
