Debian 11: 11.2 released With Updates For Bugs & Security Issues - Including Log4j

Debian announced the second point release of its stable distribution Debian 11 on 18th Dec 2021.

as per Debian news,This point release mainly adds corrections for security issues, along with a few adjustments for serious problems.

so to make sure this update is installed on system we need to run below update commands.

if you are frequently checking for updates its already installed via Debian security channel if its mentioned in apt sources list.

Running only update command does not show any updates.

below commands retrieved and installed updates for me.

but looks like security updates were already installed by me earlier and running this command only updated firefox-esr from 78.x to 91.4 version.

Sudo apt update && sudo apt full-upgrade

always ensure your browser is updated to latest and also have firewall enabled for basic filtering of attacks.
