eclipse jetty UPGRADE

Affected: >= 12.0.0 and < 12.0.36 · >= 12.1.0 and < 12.1.10

Fixed in: 12.0.36, 12.1.10

Safe to downgrade to: a release before 12.0.0

1. Check installed version

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

2. UPGRADE to 12.0.36 (Debian / Ubuntu)

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

2. UPGRADE (RHEL / Amazon Linux / Fedora)

sudo dnf upgrade jetty

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 12.0.0 (Debian / Ubuntu)

apt-cache madison jetty sudo apt install jetty=<VERSION_BEFORE_12.0.0> sudo apt-mark hold jetty

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

dnf --showduplicates list jetty sudo dnf downgrade jetty-<VERSION_BEFORE_12.0.0> sudo dnf versionlock add jetty

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.
