Keep your apps running safely on the runtimes they were built for, without rushed upgrades or broken code – even after official support ends.
Debian 10 (Buster) reached end of life on June 30, 2024, which means free security updates from the Debian Security Team have officially ended. To remain supported, you’d need to migrate to a newer Debian release – a process that can be time-consuming, disruptive, and risky for production environments that can’t easily upgrade.
Without extended support, Debian 10 systems are now exposed to new vulnerabilities, potential compliance violations, and operational instability.
