I’d argue this not having a broader security push before the public release happened, is a pretty serious failure on someone’s part.
And who is that “someone”? We fix bugs like this in the kernel on a daily basis. If people have not learned to constantly upgrade to stay ahead of this, then why even assign these 10 CVEs a day in the first place? :)

@warthog9@social.afront.org @argv_minus_one@mastodon.sdf.org Heck, this was even one of the very few CVE entries that we actually scored, giving it a 7.8 on the CVSS scale. We rarely score these things, but when we do, perhaps people should actually pay attention? Makes me wonder why we even do this sometimes... {sigh}
