Netgear still don not push update version 6.10.9 to clients.
Have you manually installed it?
Did you notice any changes?
And still NO release information: https://kb.netgear.com/000065653/ReadyNAS-OS-Software-Version-6-10-9

I installed it some time ago. The only visible changes are that the Netgear Repo remains broken in 6.10.8, but not in 6.10.9. That's not inherent to the update though, they could (and should) just fix the broken repo.

True. Although it does point to netgear.com/about/security for security info, there is nothing there for 6.10.9 (just one fix that was in 6.10.8).
And if you look inside the zip, you'll find the release notes for 6.10.8.
So no way to know the impact of the vulnerabilities in 6.10.8 that they say they fixed.

Thanks for your reply StephenB
Bundling 6.10.9 with release information from 6.10.8 i yet another blunder.
Yes, it would be much better if Netgear fixed their repo instead of forcing all clients to use another repo.

I’ll even throw in the drives that are installed in it - it has four 4.0TB WD Red (NAS) drives (WD40EFRX). Drop me an email with an offer if you’re interested: timbck2@gmail.com.
