The link to the 9.0.1 release notes should be https://github.com/dotnet/core/blob/main/release-notes/9.0/9.0.1/9.0.1.md

Is there something we can do about the release notes? "... writing a specially crafted file in the security context of the local system. This only affects .NET on Linux operating systems." doesn't make any sense.

Historically, the Microsoft.Extensions., Microsoft.AspNetCore and System. packages were updated and released for minor/patch versions separately. Has this approach changed? Or it's only a coincidence that so many packages need an update now?

I'm noticing an infinite loop issue in github actions that download 8.0.405 - specified 8.0.404 to resolve the issue for now.

the failing command was
dotnet publish --os=linux --arch=x64 --no-self-contained --no-restore -c ${{ env.environment }}
