Operating system support status

The syntax os_eol_expired:<boolean> can be used to find identify vulnerabilities on assets based on whether their operating systems are End of Life (EOL). This field evaluates both the os_eol and os_eol_extended values to only return vulnerabilities on assets with expired coverage.

The term is a boolean value:
