    Risk assessment: Umbraco 7 running ½ a year after End-of-Life !?

    Hi! Is it possible to say anything relevant about "how big the risk is" if I keep a Umbraco 7 website running for about 6 months after the official "end of life" in September?

    I guess it's all about chance/luck - if a vulnerability will come up after the security support has ended. But perhaps some of you know something about what the odds are..!? :-) I.e. how often does that actually happen? For example how many (severe) security issues were actually patched in 2022 on Umbraco 7?

    THANKS for any input!

    As I work at Umbraco, I will tell you don't wait. But make your own assessment.

    I only came here to help you with data, looks like the last critical security issue that affected Umbraco 7 was on March 17, 2020:

    https://umbraco.com/about-us/trust-center/security-and-umbraco/how-to-get-informed-about-security-advisories/history-of-umbraco-security-advisories/

    Additionally, while we have made new releases for v7 last year, the last significant update was 2 years ago (incidentally, to fix a low risk vulnerability).
