Lifecycle detail

Oracle JDK 11 was released on September 25, 2018 and support ended in September 2023 — a supported lifespan of 5 years, shorter than the 8 years and 1 month median for Oracle JDK LTS releases. It was a long-term support (LTS) release, so it received a longer patch window than the interim releases around it. Its most recent release is 11.0.33.0.3, published October 24, 2026. Standard support ended 3 years and 1 month ago. Security fixes now come only through extended support, published to January 2032; without it this version is unpatched. 6 newer Oracle JDK releases have shipped since.

What does Oracle JDK 11 end of life mean?

When Oracle JDK 11 reaches end of life, the maintainers stop issuing security patches for this version except under Oracle Java SE Subscription (paid), until Jan 2032. 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 Oracle JDK 11 past its EOL date creates a growing attack surface that a clean scan result does not rule out.

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

Frequently Asked Questions
When does Oracle JDK 11 reach end of life?
Oracle JDK 11 reached end of life in September 2023. Security patches continue only under Oracle Java SE Subscription (paid), until January 2032; without it this version receives none.
Is Oracle JDK 11 still supported?
Not in standard support. Oracle JDK 11 reached end of life in September 2023; security patches continue only under Oracle Java SE Subscription (paid) until January 2032.
What should I upgrade to from Oracle JDK 11?
The recommended upgrade from Oracle JDK 11 is Oracle JDK 25 — the latest actively supported version. Check the Oracle JDK full timeline for all supported versions.
What are the security risks of running Oracle JDK 11 past EOL?
Since Oracle JDK 11 reached end of life, the maintainers no longer issue security patches outside Oracle Java SE Subscription. Any CVEs disclosed after the EOL date accumulate with no vendor fix. A CVE-based scan does not show this — it is the CVE blind spot; some scanners flag unsupported versions of common products, but coverage varies and none give the date in advance. Organizations running EOL Oracle JDK should migrate immediately or implement compensating controls.
