If we assume the model-based definition of software defects we can easily see that any changes to an underlying model can surface the new unanticipated defects and hide the known ones. New and evolving disciplines like software security engineering can change our views about solid code and create defects by introducing non-functional constraints on models. Another aspect of this is the interaction of a human debugger with code, the very act of reading code can create defects. However the latter effect is controversial and belongs to the evolving quantum theory of software defects (see my previous post about bugtanglement).
