Question 2

Is Salt 3007 still supported?

Accepted Answer

Salt 3007 is no longer supported — it has passed its end of life date (June 2026). No further security patches will be issued. Upgrade to a supported version or obtain extended lifecycle support.

Question 3

When does Salt 3007 reach end of life?

Accepted Answer

Salt 3007 reached (or will reach) end of life in June 2026. After this date, no security patches or bug fixes are issued by the vendor.

Question 4

What are the security risks of running Salt 3007 after end of life?

Accepted Answer

After end of life, the vendor's standard support for Salt 3007 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.
