mongodb mongodb UPGRADE

Affected: >= 7.0.0 and < 7.0.34 · >= 8.0.0 and < 8.0.23 · >= 8.2.0 and < 8.2.9 · >= 8.3.0 and < 8.3.2

Fixed in: 7.0.34, 8.0.23, 8.2.9, 8.3.2

Safe to downgrade to: a release before 7.0.0

1. Check installed version

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

2. UPGRADE to 7.0.34 (Debian / Ubuntu)

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

2. UPGRADE (RHEL / Amazon Linux / Fedora)

sudo dnf upgrade mongodb

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 7.0.0 (Debian / Ubuntu)

apt-cache madison mongodb sudo apt install mongodb=<VERSION_BEFORE_7.0.0> sudo apt-mark hold mongodb

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

dnf --showduplicates list mongodb sudo dnf downgrade mongodb-<VERSION_BEFORE_7.0.0> sudo dnf versionlock add mongodb

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.
