When will the DQ77KB be updated to fix the AMT vulnerability?

[PQure]

I have an Intel DQ77KB board. It is vulnerable to the critical AMT flaw. I use AMT so the mitigation guide is inadequate (as it requires disabling this functionality).

When will a BIOS update be available to fix this problem?

kuro68k, Thank you very much for joining the Intel® Desktop Boards communities.

To answer your question, we are currently working and evaluating the update options for the Intel® desktop boards. In order to verify any updates please visit our web site, in there you will be able to see if there is new BIOS version available for your board:https://www.intel.com/content/www/us/en/support.html https://www.intel.com/content/www/us/en/support.htmlhttps://downloadcenter.intel.com/ https://downloadcenter.intel.com/ Any further questions, please let me know.

Can you at least confirm that there will be a fix eventually? If now, I will have to retire a large amount of hardware as there is no viable mitigation for this flaw.

kuro68k, Currently Intel is still working on this subject, that is the official statement. As soon as I get any updates, I will post all the details on this thread.

Any questions, please let me know. Regards,Alberto R
