suspicious - Fingerprint update 6.0.0.4

[userFVhAVcDvnA]

Received a system generated message below on my VZW S10+ this morning. But I am unable to find any official information confirming this is a legitimate update.  I've searched Samsung, and US mobile service providers for that matter. I can't say why, but something about this seems very odd, not the normal process.

How strange ... I can't remember ever seeing a message as that one ... let me go check if that app is listed ...

EDIT : as seen in screenshots I don't show that app ... and I have "Show System Apps" option enabled
.

Yup... got the same exact msg on my network unlocked AT&T Note 10+ 5g two days ago...... Need to know if it's legit...

Look in settings < biometrics and security < more biometrics settings < click on biometrics security patch
And it should tell you if there is an update or not

@DarkPhoxthat's not the issue.  I'm referring to the "notification" itself about the update. This particular update is very suspicious in the way I found the notice on my phone this morning.  Most important, there is absolutely no documentation confirming this is a legitimate update from Samsung or any of the wireless carriers. 

I am not executing the update until there is a corresponding official confirmation from Samsung or the wireless providers.

@DarkPhoxthank you for the answer. I finally verified it by going into Settings > Biometrics and Security> then clicking on "More Biometrics settings"
and finally clicking on "Biometrics security Patch"  

It was very odd to get such a notification without any sort of detail, but happy Samsung is continuing to update the device.  Neither Samsung or Verizon were aware of it.

I also discovered the notification was coming from the application TADownloader, which is a Samsung app, and finally had me thinking the update was legit until I finally saw your answer.  Thanks again.

I can fully understand that you thought it wasn't a valid Samsung biometric update since the update didn't get pushed out via a firmware update, and also there was no documentation on the update to verify it was a valid Samsung biometric update, also you may receive another biometric update since the s22 ultra has the version 6.0.0.8 installed

[user751201tmO21]

still odd though ... my wife and I got update notices today, but not a very specific notice about the Fingerprint update ... as I stated in the other thread

[user_ams007]

I never received any updates for my biometric settings, not sure why but my S22 ultra unlocked phone is running version 6.0.0.8

Calder what version of the biometric software do you have on your s22 ultra?
