Security warnings from LG tv connected to RBR850
I have recently begun to get multiple security warnings from my Netgear Armour software about my tv - a LG C2. The tv is connected by ethernet cable to my RBR850 router. Has anyone else experienced this and is there a solution? My Armour software is up to date as is the firmware on the tv.
I have just downloaded the latest version of the LG software (03.30.45) and this seems to have resolved the issue.

More than likely it picked up a vulnerability. Just because the device is up to date, doesn't mean it doesn't have vulnerabilities. Many times they're discovered and then it takes a while to get patched.
- My Orbi Armor has never complained about my LG B9 55” OLED which I’ve let auto update over the two years I’ve had it.
I have a G2 and just activated Armor on my router as well and it picks up no less than 83! vulnerabilities on the LG G2 TV 😮
Is it 1 vulnerability showing up 83 times due to a poor scan script or genuinely 83 separate ones, more likely the former unless your LG is really old firmware, in which case it could well have many vulnerabilities but the scan script still gives duplicates?
However when I factory reset my system a few weeks ago and enabled Armor it report a similar burst for one of the RBS50 satellites, then never to reported any more again for it, so it sounds like a possible bug with Armor when it first scans.
Here's a screengrab of the first vulnerabilities. It's definitely 83 different ones.
