Workaround

Replacing servicedesk-frontend-plugin jar file via plugin directory.

• If JSM was installed as the first application, the directory would be: 
  • atlassian-jira/WEB-INF/application-installation/jira-servicedesk-application
• If JSM was installed as the 2nd application, using obr, the directory would be:
  • <shared-home>/plugins/installed-plugins

Steps

Prepare Jira 8.20.5/4.20.5 installation:

1. Go to atlassian-jira/WEB-INF/application-installation/jira-servicedesk-application or <shared-home>/plugins/installed-plugins (see the points above)
2. Copy servicedesk-frontend-plugin-4.20.5-REL-0003.jar

On Jira 8.20.6/4.20.6 installation > go to the same directory

1. Stop Jira on all nodes
2. Remove servicedesk-frontend-plugin-4.20.6-REL-0005.jar
3. Add servicedesk-frontend-plugin-4.20.5-REL-0003.jar
4. Start Jira and perform a full reindexing

 
If it's atlassian-jira/WEB-INF/application-installation/jira-servicedesk-application directory, then apply this on all nodes. However, if it's <shared-home>/plugins/installed-plugins, then just apply it once in the shared-home directory.

Remember to perform this in the staging instance first, before applying it in the production.
