Debian Project Developers announced this morning the availability of Debian GNU / Linux 9.3 and Debian GNU / Linux 8.10 versions in the Stretch and Jessie series.
Debian GNU/Linux 9.3 is the third information maintenance of the Stretch series, in the latest stable version of the operating system, and Debian GNU/Linux 8.10 represents the tenth release of the Jessie series, which is the distribution of Debian before the 9 Stretch series.
Both updates include the latest security releases distributed through official repositories.
"This point release mainly adds security fixes, as well as some adjustments for serious problems. The security updates have already been published separately ", states today's announcement.
"Note that the point release is not a new version of Debian 9, but it does update some of the included packages."
Debian GNU / Linux 9.3 "Stretch" and Debian GNU / Linux 8.10 "Jessie" include many security updates and various bug fixes, but as of today, today's announcements refer to existing Debian GNU / Linux 9 Stretch and Debian 8 systems.

Just open a terminal and run the command:
This will install all the updates. New pictures ISOs for Debian GΝU/Linux 9.3 “Stretch” and Debian GΝU / Linux 8.10 “Jessie” will be released in the near future, for those who want to perform a fresh installation and they don't want to download a bunch of updates after it's over.
As soon as ISO is released, we will post the download links as usual.
