HeroDevs provides never-ending support (NES) for open-source software that has reached end-of-life, helping enterprises maintain security and compliance without costly rewrites.
PHP2Shell lets an attacker run code on your web server with a single request and no login. PHP’s fixes, released 21 October, start at 8.2. Older versions stay exposed. NES for PHP has already shipped the fix for PHP 5.6 to 8.1, so you can close it without upgrading first.
Get the PHP2Shell fix →Every .NET 8 and 9 application is now on a version that won’t get another Microsoft security update. .NET 10 is the long-term answer, but few teams can move everything at once. NES for .NET keeps the applications you can’t move yet patched while you migrate them in order.
Plan your .NET migration →Run a free end-of-life scan to see which components in your applications are out of support.
Point your build at the HeroDevs version of the same framework. Your application code doesn’t change.
New CVEs are fixed under a 14-day SLA, for as long as you run it.
Sound Familiar?
HeroDevs patches the version you already run, so the finding closes without a rewrite.

Show it’s under commercial security support, not an exception you have to explain.
Answer “who patches this, and how fast?” with a named vendor and an SLA.
Keep shipping features while HeroDevs handles security on the old version.
“HeroDevs gave us the breathing room to plan our migration properly. Instead of a panic-driven rewrite, we patched our vulnerabilities immediately and executed a measured upgrade on our own schedule.”
Unsupported software is one of the easiest findings for an assessor to raise and one of the hardest to argue away. Instead of writing another compensating control, run a supported version with documented patch history, backed by HeroDevs’ SOC 2 Type 2 report.
