Firmware GPU malware?

[Piotr]

Dear Intel Community,

All devices in my network seems to be infected probably with firmware malware related to GPU. What happens? I have strange black artifacts in some apps/scenario in all devices. Also all downloaded files are corrupted/compromised. Reinstalling OS (Windows 10) and wiping SSD drive did not help. I think that this malware used some exploits in firmware of GPU but I have no knowledge to confirm this.

Hello @Piotr

Thank you for posting on the Intel® communities.

In order to check this further, could you please provide us with these details:

1- Please elaborate more regarding the "firmware malware related to GPU" issue. How did you determine this is related to GPU firmware malware? Do you handle the specific code, Intel® SA number, or malware type so it can be identified?

2- You mentioned all the devices on your network are affected by this issue. Please provide more details. Are all of them based on Intel® CPUs? Are any other devices like smartphones, tablets, etc affected?

3- When did it start to happen? What changes did occur at that moment? Was there any recent Windows*, driver, BIOS, or software update?

4- Details of the apps (app names and versions) and scenarios where you have this behavior. If possible, please provide a short video or screenshots showing the issues.

5- Run the Intel® System Support Utility (Intel® SSU) to gather more details about the system:

• Download the Intel® SSU and save the application on your computer
• Open the application, check the "Everything" checkbox, and click "Scan" to see the system and device information. The Intel® SSU defaults to the "Summary View" on the output screen following the scan. Click the menu where it says "Summary" to change to "Detailed View".
• To save your scan, click Next and click Save.
• Once you have saved the file (.txt file), please attach it to your reply.

To upload and attach a file, use the "Drag and drop here or browse files to attach" option below the response textbox.
