Could you add something to the title explaining what this is about? maybe (Telnet remote root vulnerability) or something like that

  It seemed to me that "Merry Christmas" was a good way of covering "look at the 5 presents we just sent you".

    I think you risk people skipping over the message without reading the contents, because the title will make them think it's an empty 'happy holidays' message and not a vulnerability advisory...

      That email went to lists which also had 5 vulnerability announcements arrive in the preceding minutes. It was an extra communiqué, not a replacement for the normal advisories.

      I was thinking that at first, then I got curious why a 'happy holidays' message was on HN.
