Last Updated:Mar 27, 2025

Starting March 19, 2025, CoreDNS versions 1.6.7 and earlier no longer receive maintenance or updates from Container Service for Kubernetes (ACK) due to service quality improvement and system security/stability enhancement. We strongly recommend updating to a supported version as soon as possible.
