Kernel security team publishes tons of new CVEs every week/day.
Many of them lead to privilege escalation.
Many of the reports contain a working PoC.

This shit show left a lot of system administrators doing panic installation of the workarounds on 1st of May which is a holiday in a lot of places.

They however weren't the first ones to try to make a name for themselves with this, I just had hoped the people claiming to be white hats to have matured enough not to set the world on fire for their personal glory.
