It's nonsense that they acted maliciously. The original research was handled terribly, but it was not malicious. They intended to help, not hurt, even if they did so very poorly.
Further, that is one advisor, whose name is not being dragged. Aditya's name, however, is, thanks to Greg's slanderous comments.

"The simple fact that Aditya Pakki is so butt hurt proves this
wasn't in good faith and their only reason for doing it is to
shit out another hit piece. That email you quoted is fucking insane."

"Sleazeballs like Aditya Pakki should be fired and disbarred from doing
any "research" anywhere in the world!"

"Aditya Pakki will forever be googleable as the guy who deliberately
tried to make Linux insecure."
Does that seem right to you? Are these the "consequences" you think are justified, because Aditya was trying to add legitimate patches for a tool he was working on to contribute to the kernel?
Greg should publicly apologize to Aditya.
