Most of them are discovered by people playing around with objdump,
digging through the assembly code and looking for oddities, then the
exploits are generally developed with the metasploit library. You
really have to be able to read 64-bit assembly to do this.
If you really want to know how a lot of exploits are found and
developed, there's a great book out there called "hacking the art of
exploitation" by Jon Erikson.
As for why they're coming at us faster, I blame android for making
Linux a more tempting target.

Seems these vulnerabilities are coming at us at a faster rate... or
maybe I am just paying more attention. I wonder how they find
these.
