Keep Django 4.2 Secure — EOL Since April 30, 2026 - TuxCare

Django LTS releases are supported for approximately 3 years, with new LTS versions introduced on a regular cadence.

Django 4.2 LTS reached end of life on April 30, 2026. The Django project no longer issues security or data-loss fixes for this release – the stability guarantee that LTS users specifically relied on is gone.

Keep Running. Skip the Risks.

Upgrading a Django LTS deployment requires careful coordination – deprecated APIs, third-party package compatibility, database migration changes, and regression testing across your entire application stack all need to be accounted for.

Endless Lifecycle Support keeps your Django 4.2 applications patched and audit-ready now that official support has ended – so the end of official support doesn't have to mean the end of your security posture.

Once CVEs are detected, we backport upstream fixes using algorithmic and AI-assisted automation, with expert validation to ensure accuracy.

3

Patches are compiled in a binary format, extensively tested (for integrity, functionality, and regression), signed, and deployed to ELS repositories.

Your package managers, build tools, or orchestrators check for updates, then automatically pull and install them.
