You can check which version you are currently running
Code:
strings $(modprobe --show-depends wireguard | awk '{print $2}') | grep "^version" | cut -d'=' -f2

Code:
wg --version
I think these were updated in fw not long ago:
Code:
admin@RT-AX86U_Pro:/tmp/home/root# wg --version
wireguard-tools v1.0.20210914 - https://git.zx2c4.com/wireguard-tools/
admin@RT-AX86U_Pro:/tmp/home/root# strings $(modprobe --show-depends wireguard | awk '{print $2}') | grep "^version" | cut -d'=' -f2
1.0.20220627

Looks like latest released.
 
Thanks, you are right, latest wireguard-tools are already installed.
Strange that the last update of wireguard-tools was more then three years ago.

Yes, there have not been very much activity on either kernel modules or userspace wg-tools the last years. Don't know why, could be lack of developers. Could also be that no major issues have been found now that Wireguard have been deployed on so many systems. Most fixes before have been to address various compatibility issues.

Possibly a combination of these.
