You mostly rely on vendor kernels, that is the point. The operating system would have updated it for you if it was actually still maintained.

Good operating systems will tell you that this OS is not secure anymore (if it ever was). But many that people use dont say anything while maybe even still shipping updates, so people think it is fine.

Didn’t know about this.

Thank you very much.
