softvelum nimble streamer UPGRADE

Affected: >= 3.0.2-2 and <= 3.5.4-9

Fixed in: newer than 3.5.4-9

Safe to downgrade to: a release before 3.0.2-2

1. Check installed version

apt-cache policy nimble-streamer || rpm -q nimble-streamer || nimble-streamer --version

2. UPGRADE to newer than 3.5.4-9 (Debian / Ubuntu)

sudo apt update && sudo apt install --only-upgrade nimble-streamer

2. UPGRADE (RHEL / Amazon Linux / Fedora)

sudo dnf upgrade nimble-streamer

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 3.0.2-2 (Debian / Ubuntu)

apt-cache madison nimble-streamer sudo apt install nimble-streamer=<VERSION_BEFORE_3.0.2-2> sudo apt-mark hold nimble-streamer

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

dnf --showduplicates list nimble-streamer sudo dnf downgrade nimble-streamer-<VERSION_BEFORE_3.0.2-2> sudo dnf versionlock add nimble-streamer

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.

Public exploits and detection

Public code exists for this CVE. Treat unpatched systems as at risk, and only run PoCs in a lab.
