Feature Request: Show Signature and Hash for Automatic Updates

Post by Saijin_Naib »

Along with showing hashes and signatures for manual updates on the forum, I think the WebUI should show the same thing for automatic updates from Terra-Master.

The update panel in TOS should show the hash and signatures of the auto-update packages.

The system will compare the downloaded update package by itself, so you don't need to worry about it.

We do need to worry about it.
Man-in-the-middle attacks are possible, and these units have already been targeted by malware.

It is a very small, but real, layer of extra confirmation/information for the end-user to make sure that the update that their system has grabbed matches what is posted on the Terra-Master website's download center.

Sorry to go off-topic...

TOS auto-update never worked on my TNAS. Has yours ever done an auto-update? ...

btw, keep your high quality posts coming - this forum is in desperate need of them...

Some forum users who were very keen to provide feedback to TM are now noticeably absent. :( I'm not surprised given the very slow uptake by TM of those feedback

No problem on the OT.

No, mine has never once done an auto-update. I've done manual updates each time.

Thank you! I am trying to really think about what would benefit myself and others when using these units, so I'm glad I'm making sense still. I think there is a ton of potential here with TOS/Terra-Master.
