Could someone please tell me what is the latest firmware release for my Brightbox2 please?

 

Mine is: v0.04.05.0001-OT (Fri Mar 24 17:29:32 2017)

 

However, my Avast Anti-virus tells me that the router is at risk from "DnsMasq heap buffer overflow vulnerability" (Reference: CVE-2017-14491)

 

Should I be concerned about this?  Thanks

Mine's the same. I'm not aware of any later version but when EE have 1 they will auto fire it at your router.
