⚠️ Spring® Framework 6.2 and Spring® Boot 3.5 hit end of life on June 30th. After that, the Spring® team stops issuing public security patches.
Spring® Boot 3.5 and Framework® 6.2 are final minor releases, with +5 years of enterprise support beyond OSS EOL.
Spring® Boot 3.5 and Spring® Framework 6.2 reach end of open-source support in June 2026, after which the Spring® team will no longer issue public security patches – though commercial enterprise support remains available for organizations that need more time.
Keep Running. Skip the Risks.
Upgrading a Spring® Boot application in an enterprise environment is a significant undertaking – dependency conflicts, breaking API changes, Java version requirements, and the need for extensive regression testing across complex, interconnected services make this a multi-team, multi-quarter effort for many organizations.

How Does It Work?
We onboard new projects and enable 24/7 automated CVE tracking – monitoring the NVD, vendor, and GitHub security advisories, and other sources.
Once CVEs are detected, we backport upstream fixes using algorithmic and AI-assisted automation, with expert validation to ensure accuracy.
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.
TuxCare has successfully resolved
more than 5,000 CVEs
in open-source software – keeping enterprise systems secure and compliant.
