Affected: >= 10.3.0 and <= 10.3.13 · >= 11.0.0 and <= 11.0.9 · >= 11.1.0 and <= 11.1.9 · >= 11.2.0 and <= 11.2.8 · >= 11.3.0 and <= 11.3.4 · 12.0.0

Fixed in: newer than 11.3.4

Safe to downgrade to: a release before 10.3.0

1. Check installed version

apt-cache policy pingfederate || rpm -q pingfederate || pingfederate --version

2. UPGRADE to newer than 11.3.4 (Debian / Ubuntu)

sudo apt update && sudo apt install --only-upgrade pingfederate

2. UPGRADE (RHEL / Amazon Linux / Fedora)

sudo dnf upgrade pingfederate

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 10.3.0 (Debian / Ubuntu)

apt-cache madison pingfederate sudo apt install pingfederate=<VERSION_BEFORE_10.3.0> sudo apt-mark hold pingfederate

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

dnf --showduplicates list pingfederate sudo dnf downgrade pingfederate-<VERSION_BEFORE_10.3.0> sudo dnf versionlock add pingfederate

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.
