Affected: se_6.0

Fixed in: no fixed release known

Safe to downgrade to: a release before se_6.0

1. Check installed version

apt-cache policy dcp-portal || rpm -q dcp-portal || dcp-portal --version

2. No fixed release: DOWNGRADE to a release before se_6.0 (Debian / Ubuntu)

apt-cache madison dcp-portal sudo apt install dcp-portal=<VERSION_BEFORE_se_6.0> sudo apt-mark hold dcp-portal

2. No fixed release: DOWNGRADE (RHEL / Amazon Linux / Fedora)

dnf --showduplicates list dcp-portal sudo dnf downgrade dcp-portal-<VERSION_BEFORE_se_6.0> sudo dnf versionlock add dcp-portal

Downgrade risk

Downgrading can break dependent software and may reopen older bugs. Read the distro advisory first and test on a non-production host.

After downgrade

Restart the service, and keep the package held until a fixed release ships.
