Oracle Legacy Middleware End of Life: Discoverer, Endeca, Forms 11g — and Why Oracle Never Says “Dead”
Oracle Discoverer's last patches shipped June 2017. Endeca's between 2018 and 2021. Forms and Reports 11g in 2018. None of them ever got an end-of-life announcement — they slid into indefinite Sustaining Support instead. Every date from Oracle's own Lifetime Support brochure (effective April 13, 2026), what Sustaining Support actually covers, the Forms upgrade path that still exists (Fusion Middleware 14.1, supported to 2033), and the options for estates still running any of it.

Apache Tomcat Marks Dead Versions "Unknown" — and Your Scanner Reads That as Clean
Apache Tomcat's own security pages state that for end-of-life versions the status of new vulnerabilities defaults to unknown, the pages are never updated, and no announcement is made. Scanners read that silence as a clean bill of health. Shown concretely on the actively exploited CVE-2025-24813, where the entire Tomcat 10.0 line and everything before 8.5 carries status unknown.

Two KEV Entries, One Lesson: macOS Ventura Gets No Fix at Any Price, Windows 10 Gets One Only Behind ESU
On August 18, 2026 CISA added two actively exploited flaws to its KEV catalog that are end-of-life stories. CVE-2026-65400 (macOS Screen Sharing authentication bypass) was fixed August 6 only in Tahoe 26.6.1, Sequoia 15.7.9 and Sonoma 14.8.9 — Ventura and older get nothing, and Apple sells no extended support. CVE-2026-33824 (Windows IKE double free, CVSS 9.8) was patched April 2026 including Windows 10 22H2 — but that update is ESU-only, six months after the October 14, 2025 end of support.

Is RHEL 8.10 / 9.4 / 9.6 / 9.7 Still Supported? The Minor-Version Trap in Red Hat's 10-Year Lifecycle
RHEL 8 is supported until May 31, 2029 — and a RHEL 8.6 box has received zero patches since November 9, 2022 unless it carried EUS. Only the latest minor of each major (8.10, 9.8, 10.2) rides the standard patch stream; even-numbered minors get ~2-year EUS windows, odd minors get nothing. Every 8.x and 9.x minor release — release date, supersession date, EUS end date — hand-verified against Red Hat's lifecycle API.

Amazon EKS Version End of Life: 14 Months of Standard Support, Then the Bill Is the Notification — Every Version's Dates and the 6x Price
Amazon EKS supports each Kubernetes version for 14 months of standard support, then automatically enrolls clusters in extended support — no opt-in — at $0.60 per cluster per hour instead of $0.10 (~$438/month instead of ~$73 per cluster). After 12 months of extended support, AWS auto-upgrades the control plane to the oldest supported version.

MuleSoft's Support Treadmill: Mule 4.4 Has Been Fully Dead Since October — and 4.6 LTS Leaves Standard Support August 31
Mule 4.4 — the runtime the 2021–2023 integration build-out standardized on — lost Extended Support October 8, 2025, yet stays among the most-asked-about versions in our data. Under MuleSoft's Edge/LTS policy, Edge releases live 8–12 months release-to-EOL (4.11 dies October 31, 2026) while LTS carries ~3 years.

GitLab 19.0 leaves the security-patch window August 20, 2026 — 91 days after it shipped.
