I'm not privy to the exact communications that happened, but per the Ubuntu changelog they prepared a patch a week ago[1] (which is about the normal timeline for notification per[2]). Homebrew is not on the distros list, so likely wouldn't have got an early notification. Arch is, but remember "The Arch Security Team is a group of volunteers"[3].
