Regarding the Apple's FileVault bit, are you referring to the recently disclosed Intel vulnerability ( https://www.theregister.co.uk/2020/03/05/unfixable_intel_csme_flaw/ https://www.theregister.co.uk/2020/03/05/unfixable_intel_csm... ). Did FileVault ever use this Intel feature (even on non-T2 Macs)? It seems that there is some contention on Twitter whether FileVault is affected.
