Solutions

1. Pass a distinct toReleaseId that is an earlier active release.
2. Guard the call site: if (releaseId == toReleaseId) skip or surface a user message instead of calling.

Example fix

// before
releaseService.rollbackTo(id, id, operator); // 400
// after
if (releaseId != toReleaseId) {
  releaseService.rollbackTo(releaseId, toReleaseId, operator);
}

if (releaseId == toReleaseId) {
  // no-op or user message; do not call rollbackTo
}

When it happens

Trigger: Calling rollbackTo(releaseId, toReleaseId) where both ids are the same value.

Common situations: Client logic that computes target = current by mistake; copy-paste of the same id variable; UI defaulting the target dropdown to the current release.
