    They found a previously unknown vulnerability and it was fixed:

    “This vulnerability (CVE-2026-98432) was patched upstream and backported to all maintained stable kernel branches.”

    This is good no?

      Not saying fixed bugs aren’t good, I’m just so fed up with this marketing-driven fearmongering. They’re overhyping every god damn bug they can because they know most people won’t know how bad it actually is. They do worse security practices than most homelab enthusiasts and then prophesize the AIpocalypse because their linear algebra “escaped” (the door was wide open). Hell, they don’t even manage to understand proper bug disclosure practices. They’re playing the “Social” Media outrage game on a global scale to drive sales and everyone is suffering for it. I’m so, SO done with all of this bullshit. When the bubble finally crashes I’ll throw a raging party with blackjack and hookers.
