HP Recommended
Product: Z440 Workstation
Operating System: Linux

I'm seeing conflicting release date information for the SP140179 BIOS release for HP Z440 Workstations running Linux OS. The support page for this workstation shows a release date of 5/5/2022. However, the security bulletin page associated with this release shows that as of 6/28/2022, the SoftPaq was still pending. I also have screenshots showing that this driver was not available in June/July. Is there a reason this patch release was backdated to May 5th when it wasn't available for download until August? The TAR file contained in the release also shows a Date modified of 6/27/2022. If this was released on 5/5, that should be the modified date, not June 27th. This is for compliance so release dates are extremely important and must be accurate. Thanks in advance for any assistance the community can provide!
