Apache Spark 3.5 (LTS) Support: Frequently Asked Questions
Is the Apache Spark 3.5 (LTS) still supported?
Yes. The Apache Spark 3.5 (LTS) is currently supported by Apache Spark, and third-party support is available as an alternative — issue management, vulnerability remediation, and compliance help independent of the vendor contract.
When is the Apache Spark 3.5 (LTS) end of service life (EOSL) date?
Apache Spark lists the end of service life for the Apache Spark 3.5 (LTS) as Nov 30, 2027.
Can I keep using the Apache Spark 3.5 (LTS) after its EOSL date?
Yes. EOSL means Apache Spark stops issuing patches and support — the software itself keeps running. Third-party support covers it from there: issue management, security vulnerability remediation, and the compliance documentation auditors ask for, for as long as you choose to run it.
How much does third-party support for the Apache Spark 3.5 (LTS) cost?
Typically 40-70% below the OEM maintenance renewal price. Exact pricing depends on quantity, service level and location — request a quote and we respond within 24 hours.
Known Vulnerabilities Affecting Apache Spark 3.5 (LTS)

| CVE | Severity | CVSS | Published | Summary |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| CVE-2018-17190 | CRITICAL | 9.8 | Nov 19, 2018 | In all versions of Apache Spark, its standalone resource manager accepts code to execute on a 'master' host, that then runs that code on 'worker' hosts. The master itself does not, by design, execute user code. A specially-crafted request to the master can, however, cause the master to execute code too. Note that this does not affect standalone clusters with authentication enabled. While the master host typically has less outbound access to other resources than a worker, the execution of code on |
| CVE-2025-54920 | HIGH | 8.8 | Mar 16, 2026 | This issue affects Apache Spark: before 3.5.7 and 4.0.1. Users are recommended to upgrade to version 3.5.7 or 4.0.1 and above, which fixes the issue. Summary Apache Spark 3.5.4 and earlier versions contain a code execution vulnerability in the Spark History Web UI due to overly permissive Jackson deserialization of event log data. This allows an attacker with access to the Spark event logs directory to inject malicious JSON payloads that trigger deserialization of arbitrary classes, enabli |
| CVE-2025-55039 | MEDIUM | 6.5 | Oct 15, 2025 | This issue affects Apache Spark versions before 3.4.4, 3.5.2 and 4.0.0. Apache Spark versions before 4.0.0, 3.5.2 and 3.4.4 use an insecure default network encryption cipher for RPC communication between nodes. When spark.network.crypto.enabled is set to true (it is set to false by default), but spark.network.crypto.cipher is not explicitly configured, Spark defaults to AES in CTR mode (AES/CTR/NoPadding), which provides encryption without authentication. This vulnerability allows a man-in |
| CVE-2024-23945 | MEDIUM | 5.9 | Dec 23, 2024 | Signing cookies is an application security feature that adds a digital signature to cookie data to verify its authenticity and integrity. The signature helps prevent malicious actors from modifying the cookie value, which can lead to security vulnerabilities and exploitation. Apache Hive’s service component accidentally exposes the signed cookie to the end user when there is a mismatch in signature between the current and expected cookie. Exposing the correct cookie signature can lead to further |
