Each step is one release on crates.io, rings are release candidates. Amber spans measure the two longest coasts.

Rocket 0.5.2 went up on crates.io on 23 October 2026, 29 months after 0.5.1. Most of the changelog is security work: dependency updates that close four RUSTSEC advisories in rustls, time, tokio and h2, and a swap of the atomic crate to fix undefined behaviour when reading a request's matched route.

That gap is as long as the 0.5 release-candidate phase, which ran from rc.1 in June 2021 to 0.5.0 in November 2023. The foundation announced alongside 0.5.0 listed release schedules among its duties. In the 35 months since, Rocket has shipped two releases.

As of 24 October 2026. 0.5.2 changelog.
