QNAP pulls buggy QTS firmware causing widespread NAS issues

QNAP withdrew its QTS 5.2.2.2950 (build 20241114) firmware after widespread reports that it broke connectivity, blocked logins, and disrupted apps like Malware Remover and File Station; support recommends downgrading to QTS 5.2.1.2930 to restore functionality. The company has not issued a public advisory, and the issue appears related to the DOM secondary partition on some NAS models.
