As a headline reader I’d sure hope users of these distros receive security updates
Still on 6.1.0-17 and nothing shows up after sudo apt update.
You’re good. That’s the latest image, it’s just the confusing Debian version scheme where the package version is not the same as the kernel version. Debian package version 6.1.0-17 = kernel version 6.1.69-1
See:
$ uname -a Linux debian12 6.1.0-17-amd64 #1 SMP PREEMPT_DYNAMIC Debian 6.1.69-1 (2023-12-30) x86_64 GNU/LinuxAnd:
$ dpkg-query --list linux-image-6.1.0-17-amd64 Desired=Unknown/Install/Remove/Purge/Hold | Status=Not/Inst/Conf-files/Unpacked/halF-conf/Half-inst/trig-aWait/Trig-pend |/ Err?=(none)/Reinst-required (Status,Err: uppercase=bad) ||/ Name Version Architecture Description +++-==========================-============-============-================================= ii linux-image-6.1.0-17-amd64 6.1.69-1 amd64 Linux 6.1 for 64-bit PCs (signed)6.1.0-17 is the one I received today.

Good thing my server still runs Jessie!
I had a security download (but not yet installed) ready yesterday. Logged off without installing. Turned on my device today and couldnt log in. Checked my pwd 3 times before seeing "authentication service not working " iirc.
After reboot it installed and logging in worked.
Is this related or not and is it expected? Not being able to log in without a mandatory patch first so to say?
no that just sounds like a bug
