Security Advisory for NetGear Routers

[Johnohol]

After reading the news about security issue for NetGear routers I want to make sure my R7500 is secure.

But, I cant find the updated FW for R7500, and the FW for R7000 is wrong filetype for my router.
Does this mean my R7500 doesn't have this vulnerability?
