This is frequently how the linux kernel operates.
- ungamed 10y agoThe distro vendors are the ones who frequently pull apart commit logs to be documented.
- sounds 10y agoIt is not done silently - lack of a public announcement is not the same thing as radio silence. (For CVEs affecting the linux kernel)
- gshulegaard 10y agoJust to be clear, systemd is not part of the Linux kernel. Also, if you are going to make a broad claim like that I would appreciate some citations/examples. I have no idea if you are wrong or right on the whole, but without examples I can't learn myself.

- kasabali 10y ago> if you are going to make a broad claim like that I would appreciate some citations/examples It's a common knowledge for people who are familiar with linux kernel development procedures. For starters you can search for two examples off the top of my head, "dirt cow" , "masturbating monkeys" or gregkh tty vulnerability. I'm sure you'll find dozens of other examples if you are sincere in your interest.
