Date: 2025-November-03 Description: The upcoming Drupal core security release window [1] has been rescheduled from November 19, 2025 to November 12, 2025. As normal, the window will occur between 1600 UTC and 2200 UTC.
.... Schedule change for back-to-back DrupalCons
This schedule change is due to DrupalCons Vienna [2] and Nara [3] overlapping the October and November core security windows. We do not schedule core security windows during DrupalCons so that site owners and agencies can attend these conferences without having to worry about their sites or clients.
December is also not typically used for core security releases due to the quick sequencing of the Drupal core minor releases and the end-of-year holidays. This would mean a period of four months where we could not provide any regularly scheduled security update.
.... No special release procedures
The schedule change is not due to any highly critical issue that would require special release procedures.
As a reminder, a Drupal core security window does not necessarily mean a Drupal security release will occur, only that one is possible.
