Microsoft today released WSL 2.7.0, the newest version of their Windows Subsystem for Linux code that enables running Linux binaries atop Windows 11 hosts.

WIth WSL 2.7.0 they have re-based to using a downstream Linux kernel derived from Linux 6.6.114 LTS. WSL has been on the Linux 6.6 LTS branch for quite a while now and they remain there even with two newer Long Term Support kernels available (Linux 6.12 and Linux 6.18) but at least they have moved to a newer point release for incorporating the latest fixes and security updates.
