This morning our Spacewalk service sent out some emails , among them an errata mail regarding SLSA-2013:0957-1
What I noticed in Spacewalk is that the Issued date is set at 1/1/70

Same is true for several others,

Is there a reason these are set at 1/1/70 instead of it's normal issue date?
All these are coming from the sl6 security repository
