LineageOS 19 End of Life Date
LineageOS 19 end-of-life date, support status, and CVE risk. Data reconciled from official vendor documentation and endoflife.date at every build; the source of each date is on the product page.
LineageOS 19 was released on April 26, 2022 and support ended on February 14, 2024 — a supported lifespan of 1 year and 10 months, in line with the 2 years median for LineageOS releases. It has been without security patches for 2 years and 7 months. 4 newer LineageOS releases have shipped since.
What does LineageOS 19 end of life mean?
When LineageOS 19 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: 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 LineageOS 19 past its EOL date creates a growing attack surface that a clean scan result does not rule out.
Migrate to LineageOS 23.2 or implement compensating controls — network segmentation, enhanced monitoring, restricted access — while migration is underway.
