You can upgrade providers independently from Airflow itself, following the +instructions found in :doc:`apache-airflow:installation/installing-from-pypi`. + +When we release Provider version, the development is always done from the ``main`` branch where we prepare +the next version. The provider uses strict `SemVer <https://semver.org>`_ versioning policy. Depending on +the scope of the change, Provider will get ''MAJOR'' version upgrade when there are +breaking changes, ``MINOR`` version upgrade when there are new features or ``PATCHLEVEL`` version upgrade +when there are only bug fixes (including security bugfixes) - and this is the only version that receives +security fixes by default, so you should upgrade to latest version of the provider if you want to receive +all released security fixes. + +The only exception to that rule is when we have a critical security fix and good reason to provide an +out-of-band release for the provider, in which case stakeholders in the provider might decide to cherry-pick +and prepare a branch for an older version of the provider following the +`mixed governance model <https://github.com/apache/airflow/blob/main/PROVIDERS.rst#mixed-governance-model>`_ +and requires interested parties to cherry-pick and test the fixes.
