Affected: >= 6.1.0.11 and < 6.1.1.5
Fixed in: 6.1.1.5

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

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.
