It's been a long time since I've heard someone mention #TRON.

IIRC, it used to have the title of the #1 used OS of any kind (on any kind of device) because of it's ubiquity among industrial machines.

#Minix probably holds that title now, as it runs on the benighted #Intel #ManagementEngine and similar mal-hardware.

:tux: Clear Linux OS auch für den Desktop

Hier im Blog wurde Intel bereits des Öfteren hart kritisiert. Sei es wegen der Management Engine oder wegen der fatalen Sicherheitslücken Meltdown & Spectre.

Both models feature a tiny 30 pin debug connector that seems to provide a direct access to embedded controller and it's firmware. Maybe it is even possible to feed firmware on its own? The embedded controller is a small chip that controls the inner life of the computer. VAIOs use Renesas H8/2117 processors that are pretty powerful and independent, making the machine to boot and work fast. This functionality is provided on newer laptops by the controversial Intel .

If anyone is (foolishly) still using #Intel #ManagementEngine:
CVE-2018-3628, CVE-2018-3629, CVE-2018-3632.

@chobodoc Kein Thema! Ist ein interessanter Vortrag vom #34c3 hinsichtlich einiger Mythen rund um die #Management-Engine.

#34c3

Turns out, neutering #ManagementEngine may prevent patching silicone bugs (kind of ucode updating system inside of ME).

Über Intels Management Engine lassen sich PCs ohne Hilfe und Kontrolle durch ein Betriebssystem vollständig fernsteuern. Der Sicherheitsexperte Maxim Goryachy zeigte nun, wie er und seine Kollegen in das Innerste der IME vorgedrungen sind. www.heise.de/newsticker/meldun #34C3 #CCC #Intel #IntelME #ManagementEngine #MaximGoryachy

So that's (#minix) what #intel based their #managementengine (ME) on: http://www.cs.vu.nl/~ast/intel
