during a firmware upgrade.

The Ubiquiti firmware web interface parses the version number, right?
Did you do any tests to check how it reacts to the 0.0.0 version number?

Not yet. Is now on my TODO for this week.

I thought about this some more. Even if it works, I'd prefer changing
the version to match a recent AirOS version. The 0.0.0 just looks weird.
Also, the version should probably be changed in a separate commit.

I have changed the patch to only change the version name. Ubiquiti is
currently at AirMAX firmware version 6.0.4. So version 6.0.0 for us is
IMHO a good/current version number.

I also checked if 0.0.0 would have worked. It resulted in an error on
the device I had.
