The Linux 6.7 kernel series will no longer receive bug and security fixes, which, in time, will become vulnerable to all sort of threats and attacks.
Renowned Linux kernel maintainer Greg Kroah-Hartman announced today the end of life (EOL) for the Linux 6.7 kernel series, urging users to upgrade to the latest Linux 6.8 kernel as soon as possible.
Linux kernel 6.7 was released by Linus Torvalds on January 7th, 2024, and introduced exciting new features like the bcachefs file system, a copy-on-write (COW) file system for Linux-based operating systems designed to compete with the modern features offered by the Btrfs and ZFS filesystems.
Linux 6.7 also introduced support for NVIDIA’s GSP firmware in the Nouveau open-source graphics driver, new features for the Btrfs file system, improvements for the EXT4 file system, a bunch of networking enhancements, as well as numerous new and updated drivers for better hardware support.
