Debian 13.6 is out today as the newest point release of Debian Trixie to ship the latest security fixes and other maintenance updates.

Debian 13.6 ships the latest batch of security fixes, including a number of security advisories pertaining to the Linux kernel as well as other packages like Nginx, Redis, FFmpeg, Thunderbird, Chromium, PHP, and many more. Debian 13.6 also ships a number of bug fixes and other updates. Debian also ended up reverting their geoip-database package for geo-location IP support to a December 2019 package state. Newer versions of the geoip-database from GeoLite have been determined to be incompatible with the Debian Free Software Guidelines.

Debian 13.6 also pulls in fwupd 2.0.20 which adds the ability to update the Secure Boot CA, KEK, and DBX databases due to the UEFI Secure Boot CA used by default on most PCs now being expired.
