Some issues can be fixed by reprocessing data on your computer, using the latest JWST pipeline release and/or calibration reference data(CRDS) context.
It takes a few weeks to integrate a new calibration pipeline build into a full Science & Operations Center (S&OC) software build, test the S&OC build, fix subsystem interface issues, and finally install the S&OC build in operations. After that, fixes in the new pipeline software and/or reference data will be reflected in new (or replaced) products in MAST.
The software vs DMS build table in the JWST pipeline repository indicates when jwst builds were released, which reference data (CRDS) context they were tested with, and when the was first used in S&OC operations. Some JWST releases (particularly S&OC release candidates) are never installed in operations. That page also provides detailed instructions on how to create a fresh conda environment, install the version of the pipeline you would like to use, and how to configure the CRDS environment that is appropriate for that release.
