linux has 8,799 CVEs on record between 2019 and 2026. Disclosure cadence is accelerating: 3807 in the last 90 days against 1117 in the 90 before. The busiest recent month was September 2026 with 2014. The median CVSS is 7.8 (high), with 520 rated critical. 0% have been exploited in the wild, in line with the corpus average. The median gap from publication to a KEV listing is 158 days (7 cases). The dominant weakness classes are CWE-416 (496) and CWE-476 (444). Most affected products: Linux (6448), linux_kernel (2349), kernel (1).
