    Ars Technica[^]:

    UEFIs booting Windows and Linux devices can be hacked by malicious logo images.

    No logos(tm)

    They still need a vulnerable system, but this one looks pretty bad

      To end the year good :doh:

      M.D.V. ;) If something has a solution... Why do we have to worry about?. If it has no solution... For what reason do we have to worry about? Help me to understand what I'm saying, and I'll explain it better to you Rating helpful answers is nice, but saying thanks can be even nicer.

        Bad headline - this isn't a Windows or Linux issue. This is a hardware manufacturer issue. I wonder if that's why all our Dells have recently received updated BIOS packages.
