AWS Lambda Java 25 is currently supported. End of life is scheduled for August 31, 2029. Plan your migration before that date to avoid security risk.

Question 3

When does AWS Lambda Java 25 reach end of life?

Accepted Answer

AWS Lambda Java 25 reached (or will reach) end of life on August 31, 2029. After this date, no security patches or bug fixes are issued by the vendor.

Question 4

What are the security risks of running AWS Lambda Java 25 after end of life?

Accepted Answer

After end of life, the vendor's standard support for AWS Lambda Java 25 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.
