Buffalo LS420D NAS Firmware 1.32 Description

Bug Fixes:

- Modified to deal with vulnerabilities of Bash programming which allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary commands (CVE-2014-6271 and CVE-2014-7169).
 

How to Update:

- Connect the LinkStation to the computer that will run the updater, and make sure both devices are on the same network subnet. The subnet masks should be the same and the first three numbers of the IP addresses should be the same. The last number of the IP addresses should be different.
- Exit all applications. Also, disable or exit any firewall software. You may resume firewall after the update is complete.
- Extract the downloaded file and run LSUpdater.exe. When a LinkStation is detected, an update window will open.
- If multiple LinkStation units are connected, select which unit to update.
- Click 'Update' and enter the LinkStation's admin password.
- Click 'OK'.
- The firmware will begin updating. The info LED will flash during the update process.
- When update is complete, a message will appear.

Notes:

- Do not turn the unit or the hub off until the update is finished.
- The update will take several minutes. If it times out after 10 minutes or more, reboot the LinkStation and try again.
- Note: If your LinkStation is in EM mode, reboot it and try again.
- Do not access your LinkStation while updating firmware.
- If the firmware update fails due to inconsistent wireless connectivity, connect your PC via a wired connection, then try again.
- Update may fail if the computer downloading the firmware has multiple network interfaces enabled. Disable any unnecessary network interfaces and try again.
- USB drives are not mounted automatically after a firmware update. Unplug and then reconnect them after the update.

  It is highly recommended to always use the most recent driver version available.

Try to set a system restore point before installing a device driver. This will help if you installed an incorrect or mismatched driver. Problems can arise when your hardware device is too old or not supported any longer.
