Perhaps not. *But, at least it's been validated as airworthy.

Since when is software validated as airworthy?

Can you show me what the FAA standards are to make it "airworthy?

Software itself isn't really certified. The FAA certifies
the hardware and software together.

But RTCA DO-178B documents software considerations for
certification of software. DO-200A and DO-201A contain
standards, if you will, for data/databases used in avionics.

Note that these RTCA documents are not available for free.
