Get your Node.js 20 security plan in place
TuxCare keeps you ahead of threats by proactively tracking and patching new CVEs impacting NodeJS. View all security fixes available to date here.
Node.js follows a structured release cycle with new major versions every six months. Even-numbered versions, like 20, become LTS releases, enjoying 12 months of active support then 18 months of maintenance (30 months of coverage in total).
Version 20 reached end of life on April 30, 2026. The Node.js project no longer issues security patches – your runtime and its entire dependency tree are now without official coverage.
Keep Running. Skip the Risks.
Upgrading an out-of-support Node.js runtime can be deceptively complex – breaking changes in native modules, incompatible dependencies, and the ripple effects through a deep package tree can turn a version bump into a multi-sprint project.
Endless Lifecycle Support keeps your Node.js 20 runtime secure and stable now that the end-of-life date has passed – so your team ships features, not dependency fixes.

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.
