Run the version check that fits your platform:
# Linux package check
dpkg -s document-management-system 2>/dev/null | grep -i ^Version
rpm -q document-management-system 2>/dev/null
command -v document-management-system >/dev/null && document-management-system --version 2>/dev/null
# Windows (PowerShell)
Get-Package -Name "*Document Management System*" -ErrorAction SilentlyContinue | Select-Object Name, Version
winget list --name "Document Management System" 2>$null
How to fix CVE-2026-3068
Upgrade Document Management System to a patched build: See vendor advisory. The vendor advisory is the source of truth for the exact fixed version.
Ubuntu / Debian
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install --only-upgrade document-management-system
dpkg -s document-management-system | grep -i ^Version
RHEL / CentOS / Rocky / AlmaLinux
sudo dnf upgrade --refresh document-management-system -y
# or for older releases:
sudo yum update document-management-system -y
rpm -q document-management-system
SUSE / openSUSE
sudo zypper refresh
sudo zypper update document-management-system
rpm -q document-management-system

If you can't patch immediately
Apply at least one of the following inline controls until you can deploy the patched build. None replace the upgrade.
Restrict exposure with nftables (Linux)
# Allow only trusted CIDR to reach the affected service ports
sudo nft add table inet filter 2>/dev/null || true
sudo nft 'add chain inet filter input { type filter hook input priority 0 ; }' 2>/dev/null || true
sudo nft 'add rule inet filter input tcp dport {80, 443} ip saddr != 10.0.0.0/8 drop'
sudo nft list ruleset
Block at the host firewall (Windows)
New-NetFirewallRule -DisplayName "Block-CVE-2026-3068" -Direction Inbound -Action Block -Protocol TCP -LocalPort 80,443 -RemoteAddress Any -Enabled True
Get-NetFirewallRule -DisplayName "Block-CVE-2026-3068"
Disable the affected service (Linux)
sudo systemctl stop document-management-system 2>/dev/null || true
sudo systemctl disable document-management-system 2>/dev/null || true
If the vendor advisory lists an official workaround, prefer that wording verbatim. If no workaround is published, the only safe remediation is the patch.
How to verify the fix worked
After upgrading, confirm the installed version matches the patched build and that no old library is still loaded by a long-running process.
# Linux
dpkg -s document-management-system 2>/dev/null | grep -i ^Version
rpm -q document-management-system 2>/dev/null || true
# Pid map check for old library handles
sudo lsof +c0 2>/dev/null | grep -i "DEL.*lib" || true
# Windows
Get-Package -Name "*Document Management System*" | Select-Object Name, Version
Get-HotFix | Sort-Object InstalledOn -Descending | Select-Object -First 5
Expected: the reported version is at or above See vendor advisory. Restart the affected service (systemctl restart <service> on Linux, or restart the Windows service) so it loads the patched binary.

Is CVE-2026-3068 actively exploited?
There is no public confirmation of exploitation in the wild listed in CISA KEV at the time of this writing. Patch anyway. Public exploits commonly follow disclosure within weeks.
Do I need to reboot after patching CVE-2026-3068?
For kernel and OS-level updates, yes. For most userland packages a systemctl restart <service> is enough on Linux, and restarting the Windows service or app on Windows. Any process that loaded the old library keeps using it until restarted.
