Safe to downgrade to: a release before 1.54.0

1. Check installed version

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

2. UPGRADE to 1.54.24 (Debian / Ubuntu)

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

2. UPGRADE (RHEL / Amazon Linux / Fedora)

sudo dnf upgrade metabase

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 1.54.0 (Debian / Ubuntu)

apt-cache madison metabase sudo apt install metabase=<VERSION_BEFORE_1.54.0> sudo apt-mark hold metabase

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

dnf --showduplicates list metabase sudo dnf downgrade metabase-<VERSION_BEFORE_1.54.0> sudo dnf versionlock add metabase

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.
