Did you hear about "PwnKit"? Just a month ago one of the most serious security flaws in Linux (affecting nearly all distributions) was disclosed and it had been present since 2009. https://www.bleepingcomputer.com/news/security/linux-system-...

(btw Heartbleed affected Linux desktop OSes such as Debian, Mint, Ubuntu, RHEL, etc.)
