Lifecycle detail
Oracle JDK 11 was released on September 25, 2018 and support ended on September 30, 2023 — a supported lifespan of 5 years, in line with the 5 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. The last patch it will ever receive is 11.0.32, published July 21, 2026 — 2 years and 10 months after the published end-of-life date. It has been without security patches for 2 years and 10 months. 5 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. 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 Oracle JDK 11 past its EOL date creates a permanently growing attack surface that standard security tooling will not surface.
Migrate to Oracle JDK 25 or implement compensating controls — network segmentation, enhanced monitoring, restricted access — while migration is underway.
