snipeitapp snipe-it DOWNGRADE

Affected: 8.6.3

Fixed in: no fixed release known

Safe to downgrade to: a release before 8.6.3

1. Check installed version

apt-cache policy snipe-it || rpm -q snipe-it || snipe-it --version

2. No fixed release: DOWNGRADE to a release before 8.6.3 (Debian / Ubuntu)

apt-cache madison snipe-it sudo apt install snipe-it=<VERSION_BEFORE_8.6.3> sudo apt-mark hold snipe-it

2. No fixed release: DOWNGRADE (RHEL / Amazon Linux / Fedora)

dnf --showduplicates list snipe-it sudo dnf downgrade snipe-it-<VERSION_BEFORE_8.6.3> sudo dnf versionlock add snipe-it

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.
