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 11.7.0 (Debian / Ubuntu)

apt-cache madison mattermost-server sudo apt install mattermost-server=<VERSION_BEFORE_11.7.0> sudo apt-mark hold mattermost-server

After downgrade

Restart the service, and keep the package held until a fixed release ships.
