It always amuses me that this is so common but Microsoft takes a heaping truckload of shit when they disclose a similar vulnerability.
Two things...
These are no where near as common in Linux as they are in MS. They are spotted quicker and dealt with quicker. And almost every one of them has required local access to be a threat.
In comparison MS is full of holes because of complete incompetent design and lack of concern. Many have even been delivered by MS themselves. MS requires third party tools to be anywhere close to actually secure, Linux does not.
So to say they are the same as equally vulnerable is just not fact.
Microsoft is an actively anti-conservative Big Tech company, so those who already dislike Big Tech organizations and conservatives in particular who are tired of being targeted for destruction by Microsoft and others - are already in a howling mood. A vulnerability is just icing on the cake for more howling.
Linux firms are generally what you would call Little Tech and don't single out conservatives for harm. Many times there aren't even any Linux firms at all, just large groups of dedicated software developers trying to create something that(among other things) won't spy on your every move; because, these developers don't want to be spied on themselves and have the power to be not-spied-on with their own creation.(vulnerabilities aside, of course)

You must be easily amused.
Microsoft never discloses a flaw until they have a (presumed) fix. As soon as a flaw is identified, it "goes black" and M$ publicly pretends it doesn't exist until they have a patch.
In the meanwhile, their clients are left to twist in the wind.
Linux's philosophy is the exact opposite. Like the old Chinese proverb, many hands make light work. Spreading the word enables more people to address the problem.
Since Linux is open-source it's possible for developers all over the world to work on the problem simultaneously. But M$ could never implement a similar plan because they would never abandon closed-source code.
