XanMod has released two new Linux kernels on October 26th: the feature-rich MAIN branch 7.2.13-xanmod1 and the long-term support (LTS) version 6.18.59-xanmod1, which will receive updates until December 2027. Both kernels focus heavily on memory safety and security fixes, addressing issues in NTFS, SMB/CIFS, networking sockets, and KVM, with the MAIN version incorporating over 200 upstream commits. The XanMod project, maintained by Alexandre Frade since 2015, enhances the base Linux kernel with performance optimizations and build-time tricks to ensure a stable and efficient user experience. Users can choose from various build tiers to match their CPUs and can install the kernels via the APT repository or standalone .deb files, although caution is advised regarding compatibility with proprietary drivers

XanMod Releases 7.2.13 and 6.18.59 Kernels Same Day

XanMod has shipped two new Linux kernels on October 26th, with MAIN branch 7.2.13-xanmod1 bringing the freshest features and LTS 6.18.59-xanmod1 offering long-term support through December 2027. Both builds follow closely behind the Liquorix kernel release and ride on the latest upstream stable point releases from Greg Kroah-Hartman. Rather than new features, the pair is dominated by a dense batch of memory-safety and security fixes targeting NTFS, SMB/CIFS, ksmbd, networking sockets, and KVM. Users can install via the APT repository or standalone .deb files, choosing from x64v1, x64v2, or x64v3 build tiers to match their CPU.
