- I became aware of the latest firmware while browsing this forum. Neither the app nor the web interface indicated an available update. I downloaded the files via my computer and performed a manual update via the web interface -- one satellite first, then the other, then on to the router. (RBK50) In the past, I have had updates pushed out (only once); notices both on the web and app of firmware updates available; and updates that I found were released via this forum which I've manually installed (the latter seems to be the most frequent way I have updated firmware). Through all ways, I have never had the slightest issue with downloading and installing updated firmware.
It's never a good idea to pubicly post specific security vulnerabilities.

What?
If you're talking about release notes, they never go specific, but what you may see is that the vulnerability was addressed. No details given. For the record, it probably wouldn't matter anyway, for those that thrive on security vulnerabilities are probably already moved on to the next weakness.
Thanks
