apt-cache madison secret-server sudo apt install secret-server=<VERSION_BEFORE_10.9.000032> sudo apt-mark hold secret-server

dnf --showduplicates list secret-server sudo dnf downgrade secret-server-<VERSION_BEFORE_10.9.000032> sudo dnf versionlock add secret-server

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.
