As a member of the mass of slightly advanced skills trying to use Debian
for their typical day-to-day server needs, I am put rather off-balance by
the issues presented by the recent kernel compromise.
I have an installation that has run quite well, and have been running
regular upgrades on the
that
kernels are not automatically upgraded compounds the issue.
Upgrading kernels automatically, ala up2date and windows update, is

from apt may not be obvious to all users, especially when there may be
risks involved.
