Note

Distros often backport fixes without changing the version number. Confirm with the distro advisory or changelog.

apt-cache madison znuny sudo apt install znuny=<VERSION_BEFORE_6.0.0> sudo apt-mark hold znuny

dnf --showduplicates list znuny sudo dnf downgrade znuny-<VERSION_BEFORE_6.0.0> sudo dnf versionlock add znuny

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.
