What does CometD 8.0 end of life mean?

When CometD 8.0 reaches end of life, the maintainers stop issuing security patches for this version. 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: Most vulnerability scanners check for known CVEs but do not flag the ongoing accumulation of unpatched vulnerabilities in EOL software versions. Running CometD 8.0 past its EOL date creates a permanently growing attack surface that standard security tooling will not surface.

Migrate to CometD 9.0 or implement compensating controls — network segmentation, enhanced monitoring, restricted access — while migration is underway.

Frequently Asked Questions
When does CometD 8.0 reach end of life?
CometD 8.0 has no announced end-of-life date yet — it is currently supported, with EOL to be determined.
Is CometD 8.0 still supported?
Yes, CometD 8.0 is currently supported. The EOL date is TBD.
What should I upgrade to from CometD 8.0?
The recommended upgrade from CometD 8.0 is CometD 9.0 — the latest actively supported version. Check the CometD full timeline for all supported versions.
What are the security risks of running CometD 8.0 past EOL?
When CometD 8.0 reaches end of life, the maintainers stop issuing security patches. Any CVEs disclosed after the EOL date accumulate with no remediation path. Most vulnerability scanners do not flag this — it is the CVE blind spot. Organizations running EOL CometD should migrate immediately or implement compensating controls.
