IIRC this is the first time a fused key was leaked; keys were leaked before but those were firmware keys which were encrypted with the root fused key which as it’s name suggests is literally fused into the silicon through programmable fuses.
It’s unclear if Intel has enough fuses to push a new key and if there is a mechanism to do it in software without a specialized programming station.
If the latter two are possible and they can fix the leak vector with a ucode update then they can likely revoke the key and patch this over.
