We have a script to automate the whole thing but I found out it is not yet ready for release to customers run themselves, so for now you can either do the above steps manually or contact Support to run the script.

I will update this as soon as the script is released for customers to run.

The script to automate the remediation for all affected IDPA components is now available to customers on the original KB link as seen below! It was actually available since Dec 23. Please follow the KB (being updated frequently) and open a Support case if any issues.
