de Raadt makes reference to BIOS vendors providing fixes but there's a fix from Microsoft in a KB article at http://support.microsoft.com/?kbid=936357. They call it a "microcode reliability update". Does this mean that microcode in these CPUs is actually field-upgradable?
Yes. Intel has released patches before for their CPU's. I remember applying some patches for the Pentium III some years back. -JP _______________________________________________ Fun and Misc security discussion for OT posts. https://linuxbox.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/funsec Note: funsec is a public and open mailing list.
