Security vulnerability in Toshiba Service Station

[a***@gmail.com]

I got a notification that Toshiba Service Station needs an update to patch a vulnerability. Of course, this notification came from the very Service Station that has the vulnerability. So......can anyone please confirm that this is a legitimate patch rather than the vulnerability being exploited? I've inserted a screen capture at Loading Image.... Thanks.

Thanks.

I let this install on Friday. No apparent problems but of course if it is a
trojan I won't know until it is too late. You might feel safer getting it
