Debian Linux 12.10 drops just in time for St. Patrick’s Day with security fixes
St. Patrick’s Day is all about luck (plus corned beef and cabbage, of course), but when it comes to your Linux system, relying on luck isn’t exactly the best security strategy. Thankfully, Debian 12.10 has arrived just in time for the big Catholic holiday, bringing a fresh batch of security fixes and system updates to keep “bookworm” running smoothly.
If you’ve been keeping up with security updates from security.debian.org, you’re probably already covered on most of these fixes. But for those who haven’t, it’s time to update. Just point your package manager to a Debian mirror, and you’re good to go. New installation images will are available here if you’re starting from scratch.
Debian Linux 12.6 delivers essential security fixes
Debian, the open-source and Linux-based operating system, has released its sixth update to the stable distribution of Debian 12, codenamed "Bookworm." This latest release is a crucial point release that primarily focuses on enhancing security and resolving serious issues identified in earlier versions.
Debian 12.6 encompasses several security corrections and other critical adjustments. Users will appreciate that this update does not necessitate the replacement of existing "Bookworm" media. Instead, after installing from existing media, users can update their packages to the latest versions by connecting to an up-to-date Debian mirror.
