Berlin, 23 July 2026 – The Document Foundation today announced the
release of LibreOffice 26.2.5, the fifth maintenance update to the
LibreOffice 26.2 branch. Building on the major feature release published
on February 4, 2026, this update delivers targeted bug fixes and
stability improvements contributed by a global community of developers
and QA engineers.
Skia rendering on macOS and Windows, introduced for better graphics
performance, has now been put under experimental mode to avoid crashes
and hangs reported by several users after the upgrade from a previous
LibreOffice version.
LibreOffice 26.2.5 is available for immediate download at
https://www.libreoffice.org/download/ for Windows, macOS, and Linux.
Users of LibreOffice 25.8.x must now update to LibreOffice 26.2.5 as
LibreOffice 25.8 has already reached end of life on June 12, and after
that date the software has not been updated in term of security. In late
August 2026, The Document Foundation will announce LibreOffice 26.8.
