I should state that Linux overreports security vulnerabilities. Anything that could *theoretically* cause the system to crash for example is included, or a UAF which is not very exploitable.
Only a subset of these vulnerabilities are exploitable in production systems, and much less have any confidentiality/integrity impact, and even then you usually need to have user access to the server.
