Frozen verifying signatures during firmware upgrade

I am trying to update Passport v2 from 2.3.2 to the latest 2.3.9. I verified PGP signatures and confirmed shasum. Selected the .bin file on Passport and it consistently freezes at 98% on the Verifying Signatures check.

It is frozen here for 5-10 mins and the only way to reset it is by taking out battery. It then starts working fine again with the original firmware.

I have tried updating to 2.3.5 and get the same error.

Any idea what is going on?
