What you get from Never-Ending Support (NES) for Node.js
Security Patches
A new NES release every time we find, validate, and fix a CVE that affects your version. Continuous coverage — not a one-time backport.
28 CVEs already mitigated
Continuously updated as new vulnerabilities are disclosed.
Same-day response on critical issues
Security and application-breaking issues are top priority.
On-Demand EOL Risk Assessment
81,000+ packages have known CVEs and zero fix path. Your SCA flags the vulnerabilities, but our EOL Dataset (EOL DS) tells you which software is dead.

We Partner With Core Contributors
We collaborate with the Node.js project to ensure NES is the same quality you expect. By involving core maintainers, we set a new standard for sunsetted open source to make NES as dependable as the original.

Open source maintainers do critical work, but rarely get paid for it.
HeroDevs is putting $20 million toward changing that — funding the creators and projects that keep the ecosystem running, with grants from $2,500 to $250,000.
We’ve written patches for unmaintained codebases, tracked down vulnerabilities where no one else was looking, and kept critical systems running safely without rushed rewrites. This fund builds on that work, so maintainers can keep doing what they do best.

NES for Node.js Use Cases
Security: Close the CVE Exposure Window
BEFORE — THE PAIN
AFTER — WITH HERODEVS
Hundreds of Node.js services are stuck on EOL versions 18 and 20. Scanners flag for every deploy, no upstream patches are coming, and when a new CVE drops, the window between disclosure and exploit is wide open.
NES for Node.js drops in across on-prem or cloud service (AWS, Azure, GCP) with no app code changes. SLA-backed CVE patches resume on versions 12–20, with proactive remediation sometimes even before public disclosure. The fleet moves from exposed to defended in a single deployment cycle.
Compliance: Close an Open Audit Finding
BEFORE — THE PAIN
AFTER — WITH HERODEVS
Internal audit, SOC 2, and a customer security questionnaire all flag EOL Node.js. There is no remediation path — the project does not patch EOL versions — and executive leaders have no defensible answer for auditors or the board.
NES for Node.js delivers commercial support with committed SLAs and the endorsement of the OpenJS Foundation. Scanners stop flagging CVEs, findings close, and questionnaires can reference a named, vendor-backed runtime aligned with PCI DSS, HIPAA, SOC 2, DORA, NIS2, CRA, and other standards and regulations expectations.
Business Continuity: Migrate on Your Terms, Not the EOL Clock
BEFORE — THE PAIN
AFTER — WITH HERODEVS
The backlog is full, headcount is frozen, and cloud providers are deprecating EOL Node.js runtimes for new deployments. A rushed migration across hundreds of services risks production incidents and pulls engineers away from the roadmap.
NES for Node.js is a drop-in replacement across the fleet — no code changes, deployable on-prem or in a cloud service. Teams get 1–3 years of breathing room to plan a proper migration while the runtime stays secure, compliant, and production-stable.
