Or just leak the signing keys like they did with MSI. That quote describes the theory, but there are tons of shit-for-brains humans that can screw it up. The UEFI attack surface is much bigger than it has any right to be.
Oh man, I think you may have given me the clue I needed. On my second MSI X570s Max Edge WiFi board this year, because of what I believed was a UEFI/BIOS Rootkit. Strange things keep surviving complete wipes/reinstalls of my OS. Secureboot disabled/enabled, doesn’t matter. Plagued (among other annoyances) with some 10s sound clips that randomly play, network usage monitor showing I’m downloading half a TB a day, uploading a 1/4th of that, etc. ClamAV finding some Unix.Ransomware.eCh0raix process running (first install)…
Could you have solved my headache? Switch motherboard vendors altogether? Is my board affected? I built this thing less than a year ago, and money is tight. Need to stay on X570 chipset, too much invested in this AM4 build.
