Recently I upgraded from Raspberry Pi OS v10/Buster to v11/Bullseye. I noticed there was no kernel upgrade.
Now with the current noise about CVE-2024-1086 (https://security-tracker.debian.org/tra ... -2024-1086) I was looking at the kernel again, „uname -a“ gives:
On another Pi also with v11/Bullseye:
Old. Too old. I‘m using the default stable repositories for APT by the way.
1) Why don‘t I receive the 5.10.209-2 version for bullseye?
2) How to check what is missing or blocking to drive stable kernel updates? Is there a certain package needed for kernel updates?
I suspect I miss the latter one on that system.
Additional thoughts:
- Back then on system 1 I used the notorious „rpi-update“ (which I don’t nowadays anymore, last time was in 2022 for system 2 which is on 6.1.21 now), maybe that kind of pushed me away from the default kernel updates?
- „ dpkg -l | grep raspberrypi-kernel“ and „dpkg -l | grep raspberrypi-bootloader“ give „1:1.20230405-1“
- Or is it even „normal“ for Raspberry you OS to have such old kernels? I doubt it and thought they closely rely on Debian.
