The Kubernetes project maintains release branches for the most recent three minor releases ({{< skew latestVersion >}}, {{< skew prevMinorVersion >}}, {{< skew oldestMinorVersion >}}).
Applicable fixes, including security fixes, may be backported to those three release branches, depending on severity and feasibility.
Patch releases are cut from those branches at a regular cadence, or as needed.
This decision is owned by the [patch release team](https://github.com/kubernetes/sig-release/blob/master/release-engineering/role-handbooks/patch-release-team.md#release-timing).
The patch release team is part of [release managers](https://github.com/kubernetes/sig-release/blob/master/release-managers.md). For more information, see [Kubernetes Patch releases](https://github.com/kubernetes/sig-release/blob/master/releases/patch-releases.md).
Patch releases are cut from those branches at a [regular cadence](https://git.k8s.io/sig-release/releases/patch-releases.md#cadence), plus additional urgent releases, when required.
Minor releases occur approximately every 3 months, so each minor release branch is maintained for approximately 9 months.
The [Release Managers](https://git.k8s.io/sig-release/release-managers.md) group owns this decision.
For more information, see the Kubernetes [patch releases](https://git.k8s.io/sig-release/releases/patch-releases.md) page.
