Hmm wasn't there some kerfuffle recently about how the kernel was going to start self-issuing CVEs en masse? Is this the result of that plan?

Anyone know what the upstream schedule is? Do these kernel versions map to other distributions?

Lol, been watching these emails for work for many years now and noted the weird number of CVEs too. I'd love more context if anyone knows. Something specific get cleaned up in the kernel that had a big impact?
