Freebsd End of Life Dates
other
Developers rely on Freebsd for its stability and security, and the project has been maintained by the FreeBSD Project since its creation in 1993. The FreeBSD Project is a non-profit organization dedicated to providing a free and open-source operating system, and its efforts have resulted in a large and active community of users and contributors. By tracking end-of-life dates and supported versions, developers can plan their upgrades and ensure the security and integrity of their systems. This is particularly important for systems that require long-term support and stability, such as servers and embedded systems.
The end-of-life landscape for Freebsd is complex, with a total of 87 versions released to date. Of these, 82 versions have reached end-of-life, leaving only 5 active versions currently supported. The next version to reach end-of-life is 14.3, which is scheduled to expire on 2026-06-30. This means that developers who are currently using version 14.3 will need to upgrade to a newer version before this date to ensure continued support and security patches. The most recent version to reach end-of-life was 13, which expired on 2026-04-30.
Despite the complexity of the end-of-life landscape, the security picture for Freebsd is currently positive, with a total of 0 CVEs tracked and 0 critical CVEs reported. This means that there are no known vulnerabilities that could be exploited by attackers, and developers can have confidence in the security of their systems. Since there are no reported CVEs, there is no most affected version, and the KEV status is not applicable. However, developers should still take action to ensure the security of their systems by upgrading to a supported version and applying security patches regularly.
