Release notes

Maintenance and security release of the Drupal 8 series.

This release fixes security vulnerabilities. Sites are urged to upgrade immediately after reading the notes below and the security announcement:

Which release do I choose? Security coverage information

No other fixes are included.

  • Drupal 8.9.x is a long-term support release that will receive security coverage until November 2021.
  • Sites on 8.8.x or earlier should update immediately to Drupal 8.8.11 instead, and plan to update to the latest 8.9.x or 9.0.x release before December 2, 2020 (when Drupal 9.1.0 is scheduled for release and 8.8.x security coverage ends).
  • Versions of Drupal 8 prior to 8.8.x are end-of-life and do not receive security coverage.

Important update information

  • No changes have been made to the .htaccess, web.config, robots.txt, or default settings.php files in this release, so upgrading custom versions of those files is not necessary if your site is already on the previous release.
