That requires the CVE number to be available at the time of commit. Not
sure if it'll always be. But if it is, it's certainly a good idea to put
it in.

While I think it would be a good idea for someone on -core to actually
be responsible for such a list, I can certainly create and maintain the
page. With our track record of security issues, it doesn't seem that it
should be all that much work...
