vmware spring data rest UPGRADE

Affected: < 3.7.21 · >= 4.0.0 and < 4.4.16 · >= 4.5.0 and < 4.5.13 · >= 5.0.0 and < 5.0.6.1 · >= 5.1.0 and < 5.1.0.1

Fixed in: 3.7.21, 4.4.16, 4.5.13, 5.0.6.1, 5.1.0.1

Safe to downgrade to: a release before 4.0.0

1. Check installed version

apt-cache policy spring-data-rest || rpm -q spring-data-rest || spring-data-rest --version

2. UPGRADE to 3.7.21 (Debian / Ubuntu)

sudo apt update && sudo apt install --only-upgrade spring-data-rest

2. UPGRADE (RHEL / Amazon Linux / Fedora)

sudo dnf upgrade spring-data-rest

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 4.0.0 (Debian / Ubuntu)

apt-cache madison spring-data-rest sudo apt install spring-data-rest=<VERSION_BEFORE_4.0.0> sudo apt-mark hold spring-data-rest

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

dnf --showduplicates list spring-data-rest sudo dnf downgrade spring-data-rest-<VERSION_BEFORE_4.0.0> sudo dnf versionlock add spring-data-rest

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.
