All Intel processors released in the past 5 years contain an unpatchable vulnerability that could allow hackers to compromise almost every hardware-enabled security technology that are otherwise designed to shield sensitive data of users even when a system gets compromised.
The vulnerability, tracked asĀ CVE-2019-0090, resides in the hard-coded firmware running on the ROM (“read-only memory”) of the Intel’s Converged Security and Management Engine (CSME), which can’t be patched without replacing the silicon.
