I think one needs registration in front of Operating system distributions ,
to look to CVE, even ahead of making them available to the public.
That is to give time maintainers to fix it before it is published.

So security updates check path, is needed to be established in OI,
Who is the one that gets access to CVEs and distributes to maintainers 
of packages information about security fixing.

Also, information about CVEs that are not released yet does not requre 
to be public before package maintainer fixes it.
That is what I think understand thus far, am I right?
