what is the latest version of Big Sur?

My wife updated Big Sur to 11.6.5

I tried to do the same but I cannot find this update.

I am still on Big Sur 11.6.4.

If this version does not exist, she might have been hacked


Has anyone an answer for me please


MacBook Pro (2020 and later)

EDITED


If she is running Big Sur 11.6.5 that is either a mis-read or Beta Software


softwareupdate --list-full-installers


Finding available software

I get the same list, 11.6.4 is the latest shown by softwareupdate. However, another Mac that is in the beta program has some plist files showing version 11.6.5. I can't check the About This Mac because it never made it through that last update, it won't boot normally. But trying to fix it by installing 11.6.4 on it using a USB drive fails with "can't downgrade". So the OS on it must be later than 11.6.4. Did Apple publish a problematic 11.6.5 and immediately pull it?
