"Earlier today, Canonical has announced the availability of a major security update for the following Ubuntu distributions: 6.06 LTS, 8.04 LTS, 8.10 and 9.04 (also applies to Kubuntu, Edubuntu and Xubuntu). The update patches no more than 15 security issues (see below for details) discovered in the Linux kernel packages by various hackers. Therefore, it is strongly recommended to update your system as soon as possible!"

It probably does. I don't have Mint installed at the moment, but I got the kernel update (the day before yesterday) in both Ubuntu and Debian.
 
Will this happen through the auto-update feature? (It's name escapes me at the moment).
