On our CentOS 7 servers I see there is a new kernel available when doing yum update:
kernel 3.10.0-1062.12.1.el7 kernel-devel 3.10.0-1062.12.1.el7
However I am not able to find any announcement at redhat.com for this kernel. The only announcement I find is this from CentOS: https://www.mail-archive.com/centos-announce@centos.org/msg11573.html
However that CentOS announcement links to this kernel: https://access.redhat.com/errata/RHSA-2020:0375 - but that kernel is the rt (real time) kernel. Does the CentOS announce link to the wrong kernel at https://access.redhat.com ?
I did try to search for kernel 3.10.0-1062.12.1.el7 at https://access.redhat.com - but I am only able to find the rt kernel announcement. Is anybody else able to find the announcement for this kernel? Please share a link to it. Thanks!
Hi
I don't know where the announcements go. I cloned https://git.centos.org/git/rpms/kernel.git and grabbed the changelog section pasted below from the git diff in SPECS/kernel.spec (commit dated 4 Feb 2020)

This is the standard kernel announcement. https://access.redhat.com/errata/RHSA-2020:0374
You could join the rhsa-announce list here: https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/rhsa-announce
Or just browse the archives. -- Jonathan Billings

Sorry about that.. we have a script that uses the Errata Page API to search for the number.
For some reason, kernel-3.10.0-1062.12.1.el7.src.rpm (that exact name) is in the 0374 and 0375 json results from the errata site.
