oracle jrockit UPGRADE

Affected: >= r27.7.0 and <= r27.7.3 · >= r28.2.0 and <= r28.2.4

Fixed in: newer than r28.2.4

Safe to downgrade to: a release before r27.7.0

1. Check installed version

apt-cache policy jrockit || rpm -q jrockit || jrockit --version

2. UPGRADE to newer than r28.2.4 (Debian / Ubuntu)

sudo apt update && sudo apt install --only-upgrade jrockit

2. UPGRADE (RHEL / Amazon Linux / Fedora)

sudo dnf upgrade jrockit

Note

Distros often backport fixes without changing the version number. Confirm with the distro advisory or changelog.

3. If no update is available yet, DOWNGRADE to a release before r27.7.0 (Debian / Ubuntu)

apt-cache madison jrockit sudo apt install jrockit=<VERSION_BEFORE_r27.7.0> sudo apt-mark hold jrockit

3. If no update is available yet, DOWNGRADE (RHEL / Amazon Linux / Fedora)

dnf --showduplicates list jrockit sudo dnf downgrade jrockit-<VERSION_BEFORE_r27.7.0> sudo dnf versionlock add jrockit

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.
