Glibc becomes a CVE Numbering Authority
[Posted February 8, 2024 by corbet]
The GNU C Library project has
been accepted as a CVE Numbering Authority (CNA), meaning that the
project is now in control of the CVE numbers assigned to its code.

As a CNA the glibc security team will be working to improve the quality and response time of security advisories and mitigations.Over the coming months, the glibc security team will define the process for the CNA and establish best practices that can also be used by the rest of the GNU Toolchain.
See this article for some background on this change.
