Greg Kroah-Hartman has announced the release of the 6.11.3, 6.10.14, 6.6.55, and 6.6.56 stable kernels. The 6.6.56 release fixes a problem with building perf in 6.6.55; "If you do not use the perf tool in the 6.6.y tree, there is no need to upgrade.". Meanwhile, 6.10.14 is the last of the 6.10.y series, so users should now be moving to 6.11.y. Other than 6.6.56, they contain the usual long list of important fixes throughout the kernel tree.

Security updates have been issued by Debian (chromium), Fedora (firefox, koji, unbound, webkit2gtk4.0, and xen), Red Hat (glibc, net-snmp, and tomcat), Slackware (mozilla), SUSE (apache-commons-io, buildah, cups-filters, liboath-devel, libreoffice, libunbound8, podman, and redis), and Ubuntu (cups-browsed, cups-filters, edk2, linux-raspi-5.4, and oath-toolkit).
