Greg K-H (gregkh@social.kernel.org)'s status on Thursday, 30-May-2024 19:27:25 JSTGreg K-H @ljs @mcepl @mort @vbabka Yes, I said "trolling" many years ago in jest as there was no way for the kernel community to actually create CVEs like that, it was a joke.
But what I'm saying now is that I am NOT trolling anyone. The number of CVEs created for the kernel is exactly what cve.org wants us to do here as now we ARE allowed to be a CNA. And by being a CNA, we must follow the rules of cve.org which is what we are doing. I have had many meetings with the cve.org employees and board about this, and everyone seems to be in agreement that what we are doing now is correct and should be done this way.
Again, I'm not trolling anyone, and again, the kernel development model has not changed, all that has changed is that finally we are marking all potential vulnerability fixes as CVEs.
Again, if anyone knows of any CVE entries that we have assigned that should not be CVE entries, please let us know.
