Should be Upstream-Status (you missed the dash).  I've fixed it, but
something to keep in mind next time, otherwise an error at build time:

ERROR: json-c-0.15-r0 do_patch: Malformed Upstream-Status in patch
/home/steve/builds/poky-contrib-kirkstone/meta/recipes-devtools/json-c/json-c/CVE-2021-32292.patch
Please correct according to
https://www.openembedded.org/wiki/Commit_Patch_Message_Guidelines#Patch_Header_Recommendations:_Upstream-Status
:
Upstream Status: Backport [4e9e44e5258dee7654f74948b0dd5da39c28beec]
