I have a Problem. Please help me with my Problem.

This is the Logitech K400 Plus. It is my favoritestest keyboard. It is light. I can set it in my lap to type which is good for my rsi. It has an onboard touchpad.

It is (was?), due to Logitech's old "Unifying Receiver" tech, vulnerable to multiple serious security flaws, including (?) a MITM where if you plug it in while an attacker is within 30 feet they can surveil all keystrokes after.

What I am trying to figure out is

A. How do I tell if my K400+ has outstanding security vulnerabilities, and if so, which ones? I have what Logi Options + claims to be the newest firmware (receiver 24.10.36, device 63.2.16). How vulnerable am I with this firmware?

B. If I decide to replace my K400+ with a newer, possibly bluetooth keyboard, what is the *closest* keyboard I can get to the K400+? All newer Logitechs remove the touchpad, or have weirdo circular keys, or both.

@mcc probably not what you want to hear but I have the old K400 that uses a USB dongle instead of Bluetooth

@chunter that is the vulnerable one. Bluetooth Logitech devices are not vulnerable. There is no Bluetooth K400 series.

@mcc Thank you, I just spotted an article about it.

I don't know why anyone would want to attack the computer I attached it to but I've been thinking about getting the mini apple keyboard for looks
