Affected: < 11.3.6 · >= 12.0.0 and < 12.0.3
Fixed in: 11.3.6, 12.0.3
Safe to downgrade to: a release before 12.0.0
1. Check installed version
apt-cache policy marklogic-server || rpm -q marklogic-server || marklogic-server --version
2. UPGRADE to 11.3.6 (Debian / Ubuntu)
sudo apt update && sudo apt install --only-upgrade marklogic-server
2. UPGRADE (RHEL / Amazon Linux / Fedora)
sudo dnf upgrade marklogic-server
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 marklogic-server
sudo apt install marklogic-server=<VERSION_BEFORE_12.0.0>
sudo apt-mark hold marklogic-server
3. If no update is available yet, DOWNGRADE (RHEL / Amazon Linux / Fedora)
dnf --showduplicates list marklogic-server
sudo dnf downgrade marklogic-server-<VERSION_BEFORE_12.0.0>
sudo dnf versionlock add marklogic-server
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.
