The rolled-back version of the GroundRunner is now available for download. As a reminder: this rollback only needs to be done if your GroundRunner is hosted on Linux and you were affected by last night's update. If your GroundRunner is operating without issues, you do not need to take any action.

The instructions for manually updating your GroundRunner can be located here: https://support.workiva.com/hc/en-us/articles/360035643872-Manage-GroundRunners-for-connections#section5

We will be rolling back the GroundRunner update. Due to the nature of the issue, impacted clients will need to manually update their GroundRunner executables. Please do not attempt this yet, as the rolled-back version is not yet available.
