Lifecycle detail

Azul Zulu 11 was released on September 25, 2018 and support is scheduled to end in January 2032 — a planned supported lifespan of 13 years and 4 months, longer than the 8 years and 1 month median for Azul Zulu LTS releases. It is a long-term support (LTS) release, so it carries a longer patch window than the interim releases around it. Its most recent patch is 11.90.205, published August 18, 2026.

What does Azul Zulu 11 end of life mean?

When Azul Zulu 11 reaches end of life, the maintainers stop issuing security patches for this version except under Azul Platform Core (paid), until Jan 2034. CVEs discovered after the EOL date are publicly disclosed on the National Vulnerability Database with no patch available. Exploit code frequently appears on GitHub within days of disclosure.

The CVE blind spot: A CVE-based scan does not show the ongoing accumulation of unpatched vulnerabilities in EOL software versions. Some scanners flag unsupported versions of common products, but coverage varies, and none of them give you the date in advance. Running Azul Zulu 11 past its EOL date creates a growing attack surface that a clean scan result does not rule out.

Migrate to Azul Zulu 25 or implement compensating controls — network segmentation, enhanced monitoring, restricted access — while migration is underway.
