Important
This is a supported replacement of the original kubernetes/ingress-nginx repository, which was archived on March 24, 2026.
Community contributions are not being accepted at this time. The documentation has been carried over directly from the original repository and may not reflect recent changes.
We will make a best-effort attempt to address publicly known security vulnerabilities, including CVEs in dependencies and certain source code vulnerabilities when remediation can be achieved safely and with minimal risk. If mitigating a vulnerability would require extensive code changes (for example, adapting to a new API or significant refactoring), we will generally not make that change in order to avoid introducing regressions.

ingress-nginx was an Ingress controller for Kubernetes using NGINX as a reverse proxy and load balancer.
Learn more about Ingress on the Kubernetes documentation site.
If you are not already using ingress-nginx, you should not be deploying it as it is not being developed. Instead you should identify a Gateway API implementation and use it.
Do not use in multi-tenant Kubernetes production installations. This project assumes that users that can create Ingress objects are administrators of the cluster. See the FAQ for more.
If you encounter issues, review the troubleshooting docs, search for an issue, or talk to us on the #ingress-nginx-users channel on the Kubernetes Slack server.
See the list of releases for all changes.
For detailed changes for each release, please check the changelog-$version.md file for the release version.
For detailed changes on the ingress-nginx helm chart, please check the changelog folder for a specific version.
CHANGELOG-$current-version.md file.
Supported versions for the ingress-nginx project mean that we have completed E2E tests, and they are passing for the versions listed. Ingress-Nginx versions may work on older versions, but the project does not make that guarantee.
