Alder Lake Leaks BIOS Source | Gestalt IT Rundown: October 12, 2022
Intel isn't happy that the source code for their Alder Lake BIOS has been leaked online. The UEFI code was nabbed by someone and posted to the Internet as a 6 GB file containing all kinds of secret things. One of the big finds is the private key for Intel Boot Guard, a seuciry feature designed to create a secure booting environment. No official word has been released on who leaked the data but signs point to an ODM in China that created a Github repository that was cloned and distributed rapidly. Tom, how bad is this for Intel?
