We do occasionally put CVE numbers in the commit message, but normally the commit comes first before we ask for a CVE number. If you want a list of kernel CVEs then you can use the Ubuntu list: https://launchpad.net/ubuntu-cve-tracker http://people.canonical.com/~ubuntu-security/cve/main.html It has the commit which introduced the bug and commit which fixes the bug. Suse has a public CVE list as well. You are right that probably some security commits don't get a CVE. When you spot one then feel free to ask for a CVE from the oss-secur...@lists.openwall.com email list. regards, dan carpenter -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majord...@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
