Ubuntu announced its 24.10 (Oracular Oriole) release almost 9 months ago, on 10th October 2024 and its support period is now nearing its end. Ubuntu 24.10 will reach end of life on 10th July 2025.
At that time, Ubuntu Security Notices will no longer include information or updated packages for Ubuntu 24.10.
The supported upgrade path from Ubuntu 24.10 is to Ubuntu 25.04 Instructions and caveats for the upgrade may be found at:

Ubuntu 25.04 continues to be actively supported with security updates and select high-impact bug fixes. Announcements of security updates for Ubuntu releases are sent to the ubuntu-security-announce mailing list, information about which may be found at:
