The second set of stable kernel updates in a single day has just come out: [1]5.9.8 , [2]5.4.77 , [3]4.19.157 , [4]4.14.206 , [5]4.9.243 , and [6]4.4.243 are all available. They all contain a single patch fixing [7]an urgent security issue . Greg Kroah-Hartman says: " Hint, if you are using SGX, then upgrade. And then possibly reconsider the decisions you have recently made that caused you to write special code to use that crazy thing. " See [8]this article for information on SGX in the kernel.

5.9.3, 5.9.5, and 5.9.7 were all followed up by updates in about a day!
