cloudfoundry cf-deployment UPGRADE

Affected: >= 30.9.0 and <= 40.13.0

Fixed in: newer than 40.13.0

Safe to downgrade to: a release before 30.9.0

1. Check installed version

apt-cache policy cf-deployment || rpm -q cf-deployment || cf-deployment --version

2. UPGRADE to newer than 40.13.0 (Debian / Ubuntu)

sudo apt update && sudo apt install --only-upgrade cf-deployment

2. UPGRADE (RHEL / Amazon Linux / Fedora)

sudo dnf upgrade cf-deployment

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 30.9.0 (Debian / Ubuntu)

apt-cache madison cf-deployment sudo apt install cf-deployment=<VERSION_BEFORE_30.9.0> sudo apt-mark hold cf-deployment

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

dnf --showduplicates list cf-deployment sudo dnf downgrade cf-deployment-<VERSION_BEFORE_30.9.0> sudo dnf versionlock add cf-deployment

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.
