engineercms project engineercms UPGRADE

Affected: >= 1.02 and <= 2.0.5

Fixed in: newer than 2.0.5

Safe to downgrade to: a release before 1.02

1. Check installed version

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

2. UPGRADE to newer than 2.0.5 (Debian / Ubuntu)

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

2. UPGRADE (RHEL / Amazon Linux / Fedora)

sudo dnf upgrade engineercms

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 1.02 (Debian / Ubuntu)

apt-cache madison engineercms sudo apt install engineercms=<VERSION_BEFORE_1.02> sudo apt-mark hold engineercms

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

dnf --showduplicates list engineercms sudo dnf downgrade engineercms-<VERSION_BEFORE_1.02> sudo dnf versionlock add engineercms

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.
