Here's what's on the system:

That only tells you the package name, not the version. Use "uname -a"
to get the actual running version,
ravenlx@hpg7:~$ uname -a
Linux hpg7 4.9.0-3-amd64 #1 SMP Debian 4.9.30-2+deb9u2 (2017-06-26)
x86_64 GNU/Linux
or "dpkg -l linux-image\* | cat"
to get the installed kernel versions.
ravenlx@hpg7:~$ dpkg -l linux-image\* | cat

Someone else mentioned unattended upgrades, which is a thing I have
never used, and which is also a thing I would disable if I ever found
it running. But that's just me.
I would like to do that but don't know how. Anyone caring to enlighten
me without me having to bother poor old Mr. Google yet again - it would
be appreciated. :)
