Accepted Answer

antiX 23 is currently supported. End of life is scheduled for June 30, 2028. Plan your migration before that date to avoid security risk.

Question 3

When does antiX 23 reach end of life?

Accepted Answer

antiX 23 reached (or will reach) end of life on June 30, 2028. After this date, no security patches or bug fixes are issued by the vendor.

Question 4

What are the security risks of running antiX 23 after end of life?

Accepted Answer

After end of life, the vendor's standard support for antiX 23 ends, so newly discovered vulnerabilities may never be fixed unless a paid extended support option covers that version. Auditors ask about it too: PCI DSS requirement 12.3.4, for example, calls for a yearly review of vendor end-of-life announcements with a remediation plan approved by senior management.
