Small crack in stingray fretboard

I have a 2019 ray 34 with the rosewood neck. I was playing earlier today and noticed a small crack running from halfway through the 3rd fret through the 4th fret. I'm not sure how long it's been there as it almost looks like it was partially filled because there is some white material in some of the crack. I would really appreciate some advice on what to do!
 
Are you sure that is rosewood? It looks like baked maple or some other wood. Best option would be a fill with wood dust and very thin cyanoacrylate super glue.
 
I personally don’t think that will cause you any problems, it can be easily filled in, it doesn’t look deep anyways.
Its a very funny looking rosewood though

It's a Ray 34. Don't be comparing that "rosewood" to EBMM wood. "Rosewood" is not a specific tree species. Look it up.

And it's still not rosewood any way you look at it. The inlays are a dead giveaway. They only use white inlay dots on rosewood boards. Maple and roasted maple get black dots. And roasted maple Ray 34s exist.

True but it’s definitely nowhere near the colour that comes to mind when someone says Rosewood Board
