That is the current Debian "bookworm" 12 kernel version, as listed at:<br>

It's quite straightforward to build your own kernel package - you could<br>
go for the latest release, which is indeed version 6.6.6!<br>

6.6.6 2023-12-11 <a href="https://cdn.kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/v6.x/linux-6.6.6.tar.xz" rel="noreferrer" target="_blank">https://cdn.kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/v6.x/linux-6.6.6.tar.xz</a><br>

<br>
However, you can also quickly test a "backports" kernel: 6.5.10-1~bpo12+1<br>
