Lodash still powers millions of JavaScript apps. Now it has the support your team needs.
Lodash changed JavaScript development. It brought utility, speed, and structure to a language that didn’t yet have native solutions for deep cloning, object merging, and reliable iteration. Lodash has been the unsung backbone of enterprise web apps, build pipelines, and npm packages for over a decade. And guess what? It still is.
HeroDevs has launched Never-Ending Support (NES) for Lodash. This commercial support package delivers long-term security, compliance, and peace of mind for Lodash 3.x and 4.x—versions still used across critical production code, but no longer actively maintained.
The Real-World Risks of Legacy Lodash
Lodash may still get millions of downloads per day, but its repo tells a different story. No commits for months. No roadmap for v5. No guarantee that new vulnerabilities will ever be patched.
Here’s what that means for your business:
- Unpatched vulnerabilities – Prototype pollution and code injection issues remain unaddressed in 3.x and older 4.x builds. New vulns? You’re on your own.
- Compliance failures – Running unmaintained dependencies is a red flag for SOC 2, HIPAA, and PCI-DSS auditors.
- Migration drag – Upgrading from Lodash 3 to 4—or removing it entirely—is a non-trivial engineering lift with potential for regressions.
- Production risk – Lodash is often buried deep in the stack. Bugs here ripple across multiple layers of your codebase.
Lodash isn’t broken. But without updates, it’s exposed. NES for Lodash fixes that.
