As of April 30, 2024,
Apache Struts 2.5 no longer receives security updates.
Upgrading to Apache Struts 6.x is the next logical step,
but making the transition may lead to:
Security Risks
Compatibility Issues
Struts is frequently used alongside a variety of third-party libraries, many of which may have specific dependencies on Struts 2.5 – and will need to be updated as well.
Lack of Migration Resources
Despite its large community, detailed documentation for upgrading between major versions may be limited, slowing the upgrade process and increasing the risk of errors.
Diminished Community Support
Users upgrading from Struts 2.5 may find it difficult to get immediate answers to their specific upgrade issues, especially when faced with obscure bugs or edge cases.
