If you have the GT-BE98 Pro, did you check through the GUI to see if the new firmware was available? Quite often the newest firmware will show up through the router GUI firmware update check before (sometimes days before) it shows up on the Asus website (https://rog.asus.com/networking/rog-rapture-gt-be98-pro/helpdesk_bios/).

PS: The Security Update Notice (https://www.asus.com/security-advisory/).

Firmware is nowhere to be found! Even tried updating within the router, no new firmware availiable.
If anyone finds it please post.

It has gone both ways. Sometimes the website first, sometimes the GUI first....

I dunno, it's looking mighty suspicious....

Hmm Any other comments on this? Can it be a Hoax? Its a good thing there was not a file link with suspecious code if its suspecious. Bennor can you comment.

Nah sorry it was a joke. Sometimes the characters make up ASCII symbols then you get one....

I thought that was the download link. I've been looking to no avail....

I will try a little more after I finish breakfast (on a computer)...

@jzchen was making a joke due to the snbforums site code converting the text ":P" to a icon when the post was saved.

I assume it's not a hoax since it's on an official Asus website and includes links to third party sites that discuss the CVE.

Just be patient and keep periodically checking both the GUI and the main support website for your router (or use a website watcher to notify you of updates). New firmware will likely be out to address this CVE notice if the current firmware branch that has been released for numerous Asus router models over the past two weeks doesn't contain the security fix.

I'm afraid I could not find it. I even tried to modify an older RT-AX52U Pro link to no avail...

Sometimes the Web GUI fails to connect to the server and you get a little red text message warning of the failure. There's a little check box for beta firmware. Sometimes, one, or the other, doesn't reach the server. Then I go to the app and check, two times. If you leave the check box unchecked, the app checks for all the release level firmware only. If you check the box for beta firmware, sometimes the app will check exclusively for beta firmware. So this process takes me 4 different tries. More of the time the app will get through, than the web GUI... Just an FYI.

Don't hold your breath, as they may have goofed up the version number. I found two emails (one for each) GT-AXE16000 and BQ16 Pro, both notifications to update, and both for firmwares released back on 3/16. I would have to guess that the _39260 (if I didn't goof it) is what the notification should list....
