title: Support for Istio 1.25 ends on September 22, 2025
subtitle: Support Announcement
description: Upcoming Istio 1.25 end of life announcement.
publishdate: 2025-08-11
---

According to Istio's [support policy](/docs/releases/supported-releases#support-policy), minor releases like 1.25 are supported until six weeks after the N+2 minor release (1.27 in this case). [Istio 1.27 was released on August 11th, 2025](/news/releases/1.27.x/announcing-1.27/), and support for 1.25 will end on September 22nd, 2025.

At that point we will stop back-porting fixes for security issues and critical bugs to 1.25, so we encourage you to upgrade to the latest version of Istio ({{<istio_release_name>}}). If you don't do this you may put yourself in the position of having to do a major upgrade on a short timeframe to pick up a critical fix.

We care about you and your clusters, so please be kind to yourself and upgrade.
