HeroDevs Announces Never-Ending Support for Spring - Ongoing Security and Compliance After Spring Framework 5.3, 6 End-of-Life

SANDY, Utah, Aug. 28, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- HeroDevs announces the launch of Never-Ending Support (NES) for Spring, a drop-in replacement designed to provide continuous security and compliance updates past Spring Framework's upcoming end-of-life date. This initiative addresses the increasing demand for enterprises to maintain security and compliance as the open-source community transitions to newer versions. With two major Spring Framework versions reaching end-of-life in August 2024, businesses face the challenge of migrating within tight deadlines or risk security threats. HeroDevs' flexible support solution meets these needs, ensuring systems remain secure and compliant even if immediate migration isn't feasible.

Security Concerns with Unsupported Spring Versions

With Spring Framework 5.3 and 6's upcoming end-of-life (EOL) in August 2024, organizations relying on older versions of Framework and other Spring Projects and packages are at increased risk of security vulnerabilities. Notably, recent vulnerabilities such as CVE-2024-22259 (Open Redirect attacks), CVE-2021-22118 (Privilege Escalation), and CVE-2023-34055 (Denial of Service attacks) have highlighted the critical need for ongoing support to maintain the integrity of applications still dependent on these legacy versions. These CVEs have been patched for Spring Framework 5.3 before going unsupported.
