The Linux kernel modules are mei_me and mei.
To check:
modprobe -nr mei_me mei #dry run
modprobe -r mei_me mei #to unload the module
This will not persist across reboots.
There is also a lms package.
I don't know whether any of this is required for a remote exploit, or if it's only needed for local escallation.
- mirimir 9y agoThanks. Both "# modprobe -nr mei" and "# modprobe -nr mei_me" report that the module isn't found.
- filomeno 9y agoFrom my understanding, this exploit can work regardless of the operating system. I mean, if this Intel hardware can get network packets without the operating system being aware, then not having those modules loaded won't help.
