Affected: >= 6.1.0.11 and < 6.1.1.4
Fixed in: 6.1.1.4
Safe to downgrade to: a release before 6.1.0.11
1. Check installed version

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 6.1.0.11 (Debian / Ubuntu)
apt-cache madison pingalert-application-server sudo apt install pingalert-application-server=<VERSION_BEFORE_6.1.0.11> sudo apt-mark hold pingalert-application-server

dnf --showduplicates list pingalert-application-server sudo dnf downgrade pingalert-application-server-<VERSION_BEFORE_6.1.0.11> sudo dnf versionlock add pingalert-application-server
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.
