Kubernetes 1.29 Support: Frequently Asked Questions
Is the Kubernetes 1.29 still supported?
Kubernetes ended support for the Kubernetes 1.29 on Feb 28, 2025 — no more patches or fixes from the vendor. Third-party support keeps it covered: our engineers manage issues, remediate vulnerabilities, and help you maintain compliance for as long as you run it.
When is the Kubernetes 1.29 end of service life (EOSL) date?
Kubernetes lists the end of service life for the Kubernetes 1.29 as Feb 28, 2025.
Can I keep using the Kubernetes 1.29 after its EOSL date?
Yes. EOSL means Kubernetes 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 Kubernetes 1.29 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 Kubernetes 1.29

| CVE | Severity | CVSS | Published | Summary |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| CVE-2016-1906 | CRITICAL | 9.8 | Feb 3, 2016 | Openshift allows remote attackers to gain privileges by updating a build configuration that was created with an allowed type to a type that is not allowed. |
| CVE-2016-1905 | HIGH | 7.7 | Feb 3, 2016 | The API server in Kubernetes does not properly check admission control, which allows remote authenticated users to access additional resources via a crafted patched object. |
| CVE-2016-7075 | HIGH | 7.5 | Sep 10, 2018 | It was found that Kubernetes as used by Openshift Enterprise 3 did not correctly validate X.509 client intermediate certificate host name fields. An attacker could use this flaw to bypass authentication requirements by using a specially crafted X.509 certificate. |
| CVE-2020-8554 | MEDIUM | 6.3 | Jan 21, 2021 | Kubernetes API server in all versions allow an attacker who is able to create a ClusterIP service and set the spec.externalIPs field, to intercept traffic to that IP address. Additionally, an attacker who is able to patch the status (which is considered a privileged operation and should not typically be granted to users) of a LoadBalancer service can set the status.loadBalancer.ingress.ip to similar effect. |
| CVE-2021-25740 | LOW | 3.1 | Sep 20, 2021 | A security issue was discovered with Kubernetes that could enable users to send network traffic to locations they would otherwise not have access to via a confused deputy attack. |
| CVE-2015-7561 | LOW | 3.1 | Aug 7, 2017 | Kubernetes in OpenShift3 allows remote authenticated users to use the private images of other users should they know the name of said image. |
