Hello,

That's how LTS releases work in Linux distributions.
Versions are not being updated, only patches are being backported.
You can deliver spdx/vex information to your users to inform them about patched 
vulnerabilities.
If LTS strategy is not suitable for you, please update to latest Yocto release.

Some background info:
