The naming convention needs to be help so the CVE is recognized as
fixed by the tooling.

Yocto CVE checker does detect CVE patches also from patch comments so
this change is not needed for that. This is sufficient:

poky$ git grep CVE-2020-35457
meta/recipes-core/glib-2.0/glib-2.0/0001-goption-Add-a-precondition-to-avoid-GOptionEntry-lis.patch:CVE: CVE-2020-35457

Is there some other tooling that you are referring to?

I should have read meta/classes/cve-check.bbclass before :) Looks like it was a wrong impression on my side, that the filename needs to match there, also when working with older versions. Thanks for the explanation, indeed there's no action required on this, I didn't refer to any other tools.
