There are so many security flaws in critical software that you really don't need to inject vulnerabilities. You just need your engineers to find, catalog, and script exploits for them - ready to use whenever needed.

If you do inject vulnerabilities you need to assume your adversaries will find, catalog, and script an exploit for it. And you risk your reputation loss if you do get caught. So I'm sure it has happened, but I bet not that often.
