More information from Intel:
https://newsroom.intel.com/news/important-security-information-intel-manageability-firmware/
Both links gotten from original link posted above. If you’ve already read these then not aware of new news and I’d suggest contacting Intel directly. Running the tool Intel provides should help.
ok so is there a patch or something to fix the issues?
I’ve actually run the Intel tool and it found system as ‘Unknown’ and stated the vulnerable software was not running. so there was nothing to be done further.
Intel should be able to point you to a patch or fix if you need it, but must run the tool to find out first.
