The Parrot Security team has released Parrot Security OS 6.4, a robust update featuring community-driven enhancements and contributions. Parrot Security OS is a distribution explicitly designed for penetration testing and various ethical hacking operations. As the probable final chapter of the 6.x series, this release refines the security-focused operating system. It also sets the stage for the upcoming and highly anticipated major release of the new Parrot 7. This release delivers critical updates, new tools, and performance improvements while preparing for the next era.

Parrot Security OS 6.4 introduces significant updates, including a Linux Kernel upgrade to version 6.12.32.

This new kernel version boosts system performance and strengthens the overall security of the operating system. The latest Firefox ESR LTS version features privacy-focused patches and a custom package that restores user configurations. Additionally, Parrot now officially supports Microsoft tools, including PowerShell 7.5 and also various .NET runtime SDKs. Many new tools have been added, including Airgeddon, Beef-XSS, Starkiller, NetExec, John the Ripper, and WPScan.

The parrot-menu package has been updated with new desktop entries for tools like Sliver and the tool Rocket.

The parrot-tools package has been enhanced with the addition of netcat-openbsd, goshs, dbd, and also starkiller. Updates to parrot-core have fixed the $HOME path, improved autocompletion, and restricted access to the /root directory. Many core system packages have also received important updates, including chromium, curl, libreoffice, and the base-files. For the Raspberry Pi, the Linux kernel has been bumped to the newer version 6.12.34 for better performance.

Parrot 6.4 introduces automated build scripts to streamline all of the future releases of the operating system. This release marks the end of the Debian 12-based 6.x branch of the popular security-focused Linux distribution. The development team is now actively developing Parrot 7, which will be based on the upcoming Debian 13. There are plans for new desktop flavors and also for RISC-V architecture support in the new version. Users can get the new Parrot 6.4 release from the official Parrot website to avoid any tampered versions.
