Where are the security updates?

I am having trouble understanding why my system isn't updating. I only run one server on Centos, so I'm not super familiar with it.

I use yum-cron, and it's worked for me so far. I use a vulnerability scanner from Tenable and it started going absolutely haywire on this one machine

The following security advisories are not being addressed in the package repositories on any mirror I've tried, and I've tried about 5-6 different ones:

Here are the mirrors I've tried having yum use, to no avail, it reports no updates. I'll link the Packages directory so you can see the packages simply aren't there (for the newer versions):

http://fedora.is/centos/7/os/x86_64/Packages/

All those packages are part of 7.6 which has not yet been released. You can get advance access to what will be 7.6 by enabling the CR repo using, e.g. yum --enablerepo=cr update (may also need --noplugins or priority= adjusting in the repo file if you have priority assigned to base/updates already).
