Starting to write up a series of articles about the Linux kernel CVE work that has happened in the past 2 years, starting with some "back to basics" information about how Linux kernels are numbered as many people/companies really don't know how we do this, and it matters a lot in tracking bugfixes and how to determine "vulnerable" and "fixed" kernel releases:

Linux CVEs, more than you ever wanted to know

It’s been almost 2 full years since Linux became a CNA (Certificate Numbering Authority) which meant that we (i.e. the kernel.org community) are now responsible for issuing all CVEs for the Linux kernel. During this time, we’ve become one of the largest creators of CVEs by quantity, going from nothing to number 3 in 2024 to number 1 in 2025. Naturally, this has caused some questions about how we are both doing all of this work, and how people can keep track of it.
