ssctech blue prism UPGRADE

Affected: >= 6.4 and < 7.1

Fixed in: 7.1

Safe to downgrade to: a release before 6.4

1. Check installed version

apt-cache policy blue-prism || rpm -q blue-prism || blue-prism --version

2. UPGRADE to 7.1 (Debian / Ubuntu)

sudo apt update && sudo apt install --only-upgrade blue-prism

2. UPGRADE (RHEL / Amazon Linux / Fedora)

sudo dnf upgrade blue-prism

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 6.4 (Debian / Ubuntu)

apt-cache madison blue-prism sudo apt install blue-prism=<VERSION_BEFORE_6.4> sudo apt-mark hold blue-prism

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

dnf --showduplicates list blue-prism sudo dnf downgrade blue-prism-<VERSION_BEFORE_6.4> sudo dnf versionlock add blue-prism

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.
