From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

It's a lot of work, but if you're feeling tired or overhwelmed and thinking negative thoughts about these releases - then don't. It's a good thing.
These are bugs that already exist and, in some cases, are almost certainly being actively exploited by criminals and government-backed organistions both.
Whilst we might ask that some are a little more responsible with their disclosures, overall this is a massive boost to computer security once we get over this hill of information.
