That\u2019s less impressive than it sounds. For 2026, through Nov. 2, the <a href=\"https:\/\/free-linux.com\/articles\/linux-kernel-cve-flood-cna\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Linux&nbsp;Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures (CVEs) team reported an average of 27 CVE<\/a>s a day.<\/p>\n<p>Why so many? Easy: in Linux, any bug can be a security bug. As Linux Torvalds told me in 2024, \u201c<a href=\"https:\/\/www.zdnet.com\/article\/linus-torvalds-talks-ai-rust-adoption-and-why-the-linux-kernel-is-the-only-thing-that-matters\/\" data-type=\"link\" data-id=\"https:\/\/www.zdnet.com\/article\/linus-torvalds-talks-ai-rust-adoption-and-why-the-linux-kernel-is-the-only-thing-that-matters\/\">Bugs will happen, and anything can be a security bug<\/a> if somebody is clever enough to just figure out how to abuse it.\u201d Besides, since Linux runs everything from smartphones to refrigerators to supercomputers, what may be a serious bug in one device may not even appear at all on another.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>It\u2019s not just Linux, though. In the latest <a href=\"https:\/\/msrc.microsoft.com\/update-guide\/releaseNote\/2026-Nov\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Windows Patch Tuesday security release, Microsoft reported 726 CVEs<\/a>. The vast majority of these bug reports are coming from AI programmers. Finding bugs on anything is no longer the hard part. But reviewing and fixing them is, and both Microsoft developers and kernel maintainers are struggling to keep up.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<div class=\"wp-block-ziff-davis-exco-video is-injected\" id=\"exco-video-block-6a8e06fe4d2cfb09fd68fb54-1439206-4\" data-exco-video-id data-exco-playlist-id=\"6a8e06fe4d2cfb09fd68fb54\" data-exco-video-title data-exco-video-src data-exco-video-duration=\"0\" data-exco-video-poster data-exco-suppress-ads=\"0\" data-exco-autoplay=\"0\" data-exco-sticky=\"1\">\n<p class=\"exco-video__eyebrow\">More from ZDNET<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<p><strong>Also: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.zdnet.com\/tech\/november-windows-11-update-customizable-right-click-menu\/\">Microsoft fixes over 1,000 Windows flaws \u2013 and one is being exploited<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Maintainers breaking under the strain<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>That\u2019s hurting the overworked maintainers. On Nov. 10, an ARM engineer and <a href=\"https:\/\/lore.kernel.org\/lkml\/avMRk95T26rsq4JK@gremlin\/T\/#m29e26907c15d1cc84f09640c2fdcfa6bffb83e2a\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Linux kernel maintainer Lorenzo Stoakes gave up reviewing code<\/a>. He\u2019d been a reviewer for the memory-management core, misc, reclaim, and Rust-related sections. Stoakes, a kernel contributor since 2014,&nbsp; wrote, \u201cGiven the current throughput in the kernel resulting from AI-generated series, I unfortunately lack the bandwidth to generally be able to offer review except in those areas I maintain.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Stoakes added, \u201cOf course <a href=\"https:\/\/lore.kernel.org\/lkml\/avNsYKFvA5u46us3@gremlin\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">the AI wave has been horrible<\/a>, and is getting significantly worse. At first it was once in a while that I\u2019d see slop. Then it was at least once a week. Then every few days. Nowadays it\u2019s pretty much half of what I see, if not more.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><strong>Also: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.zdnet.com\/tech\/how-to-file-bug-reports-for-open-source-apps\/\">Filing bugs for open-source apps is a huge help for devs \u2013 and easier than you think<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n<p>He\u2019s not alone. As Greg Kroah-Hartman, the Linux kernel stable maintainer, said in a Q&amp;A session at <a href=\"https:\/\/events.linuxfoundation.org\/open-source-summit-europe\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Open Source Summit Europe<\/a>, \u201cWe don\u2019t have enough people to review them, the onslaught of the LLM-generated patches. We need more reviewers. We don\u2019t have enough. All of the maintainers are burnt out, and we have been for ten years.\u201d<\/p>\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Can AI solve the problem it\u2019s created?<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>It\u2019s not all doom and gloom, though. Linux Torvalds, Linux\u2019s creator, <a href=\"https:\/\/lkml.iu.edu\/2611.1\/01530.html\" data-type=\"link\" data-id=\"https:\/\/lkml.iu.edu\/2611.1\/01530.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">said in a recent Linux Kernel Mailing List (LKML) message<\/a> that much of the new code in the Linux 7.4 rc 2 \u201cwas driven by various AI fixes.\u201d&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>He continued, \u201cthat on the bpf [Berkeley Packet Filter]- side at least the fixes are now coming in faster than the new reports, and that sounds lovely if true. I think most other areas haven\u2019t reached that point yet, but it\u2019s at least a sign that we _may_ be starting to see the tide starting to turn. Don\u2019t hold your breath, but maybe cross your fingers we\u2019ll be getting there in the not entirely distant future.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>We can but hope. In an interview, Kroah-Hartman isn\u2019t so optimistic. \u201cWe are getting closer, yes, but not quite there yet.\u201d&nbsp; He\u2019s not even willing to give a guesstimate of when human-approved AI fixes will catch up with and overcome AI bug reports.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Also: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.zdnet.com\/innovation\/openclaw-agent-claude-code-security-test\/\">I locked down my OpenClaw agent with Claude Code \u2013 then dared it to escape<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Daniel Steinberg, the creator of the open-source cURL project, is also cautiously optimistic. <a href=\"https:\/\/thenewstack.io\/drowning-in-ai-slop-reports-curl-ends-bug-bounties\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Steinberg, who\u2019s been especially critical of AI slop bug reports<\/a>, told me in an interview that he now believes \u201cwe manage the flood pretty well so far, even if it goes a little up and down in periods depending exactly on who sends us a new set of findings this particular week.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Still, while AI bugs remain a major headache for now, AI bug fixes, along with the work of thousands of maintainers, may finally be starting to stem the AI bug flood. I still foresee long days and nights of work ahead.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>I also expect we\u2019ll see more serious security breaches. In November alone, we saw a <a href=\"https:\/\/securityboulevard.com\/2026\/11\/linux-kernel-tcp-flaw-rated-9-8-gets-a-remote-root-exploit-from-an-ai-model\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">serious Linux TCP networking security hole revealed<\/a>; the nasty <a href=\"https:\/\/www.zdnet.com\/tech\/alpine-linux-openssh-patch-flaw\/\">Alpine Linux OpenSSH flaw<\/a>; <a href=\"https:\/\/www.zdnet.com\/tech\/alpine-linux-rebuilt-gitlab-server-attack\/\">Alpine\u2019s GitLab near-miss<\/a>; and the wide-open <a href=\"https:\/\/thenewstack.io\/chainguard-php-embargo-defense\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">PHP2Shell security problem<\/a>, which many groups still haven\u2019t patched. <\/p>\n<section class=\"zd-disqus\" data-zd-disqus data-disqus-shortname=\"zdnet-1\" data-disqus-identifier=\"1439206\" data-disqus-url=\"https:\/\/www.zdnet.com\/innovation\/ai-bug-reports-linux-windows\/\" data-disqus-title=\"\u2018We need more reviewers\u2019: Finding Linux bugs is easy now \u2013 fixing them is another story\" data-disqus-api-key=\"y0Dp0T6itn9rbTvSf2xkzkhaUL7c5EJsmaWF3XYBqXNz8GHH7wSX1nXi4qzdihWV\" data-disqus-show-label=\"Show Comments\" data-disqus-hide-label=\"Hide Comments\"> <button type=\"button\" class=\"zd-disqus__toggle\" data-zd-disqus-toggle aria-expanded=\"false\"> <span class=\"zd-disqus__toggle-text\" data-zd-disqus-label>Show Comments<\/span> <svg class=\"zd-disqus__toggle-icon\" width=\"14\" height=\"14\" viewBox=\"0 0 14 14\" aria-hidden=\"true\" focusable=\"false\"> <path d=\"M7 1 V12.5 M2.5 8 L7 12.5 L11.5 8\" fill=\"none\" stroke=\"currentColor\" stroke-width=\"1.5\" stroke-linecap=\"round\" stroke-linejoin=\"round\" \/> <\/svg> <\/button> <\/p>\n<div class=\"zd-disqus__panel\" data-zd-disqus-panel hidden>\n<p class=\"zd-disqus__consent\" data-zd-disqus-consent hidden>Please accept cookies to view the comments powered by Disqus.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<p> <noscript>Please enable JavaScript to view the comments powered by Disqus.<\/noscript> <\/section>\n<div class=\"articleAuthorBioFooter-container\">\n<div class=\"articleAuthorBioFooter\">\n<div class=\"articleAuthorBioFooter_body\">\n<div class=\"articleAuthorBioFooter_nameBlock\">\n<div class=\"c-cmsImage articleAuthorBioFooter_image\"> <picture class=\"c-cmsImage_image\"> <img alt=\"Steven Vaughan-Nichols\" src=\"https:\/\/www.zdnet.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/steven-vaughan-nichols.jpg?w=64\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.zdnet.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/steven-vaughan-nichols.jpg?w=128 2x\" class=\"avatar avatar-64 photo\" height=\"64\" width=\"64\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\"> <\/picture> <\/div>\n<div class=\"articleAuthorBioFooter_nameText\">\n<div class=\"articleAuthorBioFooter_name\"> <span>Steven Vaughan-Nichols<\/span> <\/div>\n<p> <span class=\"articleAuthorBioFooter_credentials\"> Senior Contributing Editor <\/span> <\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<p> <span class=\"articleAuthorBioFooter_bio has-bio\"> <span>Steven J.
