Document titles should have ==== above them as well, and then you would
need to shift all the other headings in this document (i.e. all the ---
should become ===).

Info here: https://docs.kernel.org/doc-guide/sphinx.html#specific-guidelines-for-the-kernel-documentation

Really?  I copied this directly from
Documentation/process/security-bugs.rst which is in the format that I
used here.  Which one is incorrect, I'm confused.

Documentation/ currently has a mix of both formats and they both work,
but the guidelines linked above is the gold standard and what we should
aim for in new documents.

The "correct" format would thus be:

====
CVEs
====

...

Process
=======

...

At least this is my understanding; I'm happy to be corrected (and in
this case, we should also update the documentation).

Thanks for your other clarifications.
