Details
update_image is a serial flash firmware updater.
It is a statically linked and completely stripped fat binary. The strings show it contains exactly this error strings.
xz compresses it to 33%, the same result as for a libc, so there's no crypted part. binwalk doesn't find anything.
It is or was installed on Dakota and Jet models and it's only called from post_install generated by an update install script:
update_image -i kernel.image -o /dev/mtdX # X = mtd containing the kernel + filesystem
This explains why it is statically built. It was likely designed to be placed into a firmware image.
The 4040, 600, 2400, 1260e where update_image is still installed all use S-Flash and have a zero size filesystem.image.
The 7530 and 1260 only used zero size filesystem.image in old Labors and use NAND-Flash today.
4040 fw 7.39 help:
update_image [options]
-i input
-o output
-j jffs2-file
-offset offset2jffs2
-h this help
The input file is expected to be kernel + filesystem + an optional jffs2 appended. The jffs2 can be directed to a file.
For this the squashfs is located by a sqsh or hsqs signature and its end is computed, padded to 256 bytes boundary.
Optionally the offset of the jffs2 can be specified explicitely.
