mfscripts yetishare UPGRADE

Affected: >= 3.5.2 and <= 4.5.3

Fixed in: newer than 4.5.3

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 3.5.2 (Debian / Ubuntu)

apt-cache madison yetishare sudo apt install yetishare=<VERSION_BEFORE_3.5.2> sudo apt-mark hold yetishare

dnf --showduplicates list yetishare sudo dnf downgrade yetishare-<VERSION_BEFORE_3.5.2> sudo dnf versionlock add yetishare

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.
