apt-cache madison vendure sudo apt install vendure=<VERSION_BEFORE_0.1.0> sudo apt-mark hold vendure

dnf --showduplicates list vendure sudo dnf downgrade vendure-<VERSION_BEFORE_0.1.0> sudo dnf versionlock add vendure

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.
