Description:
We recently looked at how the
kernel community is dealing with the firehose of vulnerability reports, but said little about how users of the kernel are responding. At the 2026 Linux Plumbers Conference , Amazon employees
Dylan Johnson and Justinien Bouron discussed the problem from the point of
view of engineers trying to keep AWS running and secure in the face of a
storm of CVE disclosures. The kernel community's longstanding advice is to
run current kernels, and that turns out to work sort of.
