Management Engine Firmware 11.11.70.1622 update for x299 mainboards

**viperxbr** · 01-27-2020 10:11 PM

Well that's counter productive of ASUS to recommend a firmware for their MB that makes it vulnerable!

Upgraded to 11.12.0.1622 and now this.

I have the same issue asus did not post any info that for sky lake-x we should use 11.11 ..so asus is to blame ..but I think that we are secure even if that tool is reporting this issue correct me if I'm wrong

Tested with three different PCs with cascade lake x CPUs
You can ignore CSME if you have already FW 11.12 even on skylake-x CPUs, doesn't matter which CPU Gen.
The Tool thinks with 11.12 you have older firmware because 11.12.x.xxxx isn't in the Table of this Tool ( You can analyze with IDA/Ollydbg )

how do you test with IDA/Ollydbg ?

Great job ASUS!

no, this is not ASUS Fault, the problem is Intel CSME Tool because it can't detect FW 11.12.x.xxxx ( it even says Detection Error )
You are not vulnerable with FW 11.12
