What are you trying to do?

Currently only the version of the installed Linux kernel is used as the node:osVersion posture for devices. It would be helpful to also see the distribution's version, ie Fedora 12 or Ubuntu 22.04.

How should we solve this?

Parse and report the Linux distribution information separately from the Linux kernel version.

What is the impact of not solving this?

Less granular control of device postures on Linux.

Anything else?

You could consider using codenames for debian-based distros, and/or version numbers as used in RHEL based distros.
