Greg did it; it came from the kernel CNA:

https://www.cve.org/CVERecord?id=CVE-2024-46701

The way it seems to work is that this is simply a wrapper for the
upstream commit:

https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux.git/commit/?id=64a7ce76fb901bf9f9c36cf5d681328fc0fd4b5a

Which is what appears as the last stable reference.  I assume someone
investigated and added the vulnerable kernel details.  I think the
theory is that since you reviewed the original upstream patch, stable
just takes care of the backports and CVE management of the existing fix
through the normal stable process.
