When I run the detection tool, I get:
Based on the analysis performed by this tool: Detection Error: This system may be vulnerable, please install the Intel(R) MEI/TXEI driver (available from your system manufacturer).
Does that mean that the Intel ME is disabled, so I don't have to worry about it? I certainly don't want to install anything that might enable the Intel ME if it's already disabled!
What a quandary. This reminds me of all the information I was asked to give to get a detailed credit report. If I didn't give it, they weren't going to give me the report. If I gave it, they would add to my credit file even if they never had it before.
- rst 9y agoThat's what you get if the tool can't identify the ME version. (I get "not vulnerable" if I run the script with sudo -- ME version too old for these vulns, though likely has other, undisclosed vulns -- but without sudo, I get "may be vulnerable", since it can't talk to the kernel driver.)
