432 CVEs in Two Days: Linux Kernel Collapses Under AI Reports

The Linux kernel team published 432 CVEs in just two days, an unprecedented volume that has raised alarms among system administrators. The cause points to a flood of AI-generated bug reports, which according to Linus Torvalds himself have made the security mailing list "almost unmanageable." Experts like Jan Schaumann (Akamai) and Greg Kroah-Hartman debate whether the solution lies in automating updates or rethinking the CVE system.
