Timeline

ibm security verify bridge directory sync UPGRADE
Affected: >= 1.0.1 and <= 1.0.12
Fixed in: newer than 1.0.12
Safe to downgrade to: a release before 1.0.1
1. Check installed version
apt-cache policy security-verify-bridge-directory-sync || rpm -q security-verify-bridge-directory-sync || security-verify-bridge-directory-sync --version
2. UPGRADE to newer than 1.0.12 (Debian / Ubuntu)
sudo apt update && sudo apt install --only-upgrade security-verify-bridge-directory-sync
2. UPGRADE (RHEL / Amazon Linux / Fedora)
sudo dnf upgrade security-verify-bridge-directory-sync
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 1.0.1 (Debian / Ubuntu)
apt-cache madison security-verify-bridge-directory-sync sudo apt install security-verify-bridge-directory-sync=<VERSION_BEFORE_1.0.1> sudo apt-mark hold security-verify-bridge-directory-sync
3. If no update is available yet, DOWNGRADE (RHEL / Amazon Linux / Fedora)
dnf --showduplicates list security-verify-bridge-directory-sync sudo dnf downgrade security-verify-bridge-directory-sync-<VERSION_BEFORE_1.0.1> sudo dnf versionlock add security-verify-bridge-directory-sync
