achievement unlocked: code execution pre-ExitBootServices

that was easy, i say, as a blahaj watches on

this requires physical access on each boot, but they tried and failed to stop exactly the method i used.

here's a gift to everyone on fedi and beyond. I've been playing with this for a couple of days now.

this is the original UUP sets for Windows CPC (aka Windows WNC, aka Windows Cloud PC), that is, the operating system preinstalled on the Microsoft Windows 365 Link. AMD64 and ARM64 sets included. convert them to ISO with your favourite tool and enjoy.

don't install it (with latest CU) on real hardware you care about, it'll apply a CiPolicy (locked via BS-only UEFI NVRAM var), so you won't be able to boot anything else with secure boot enabled.

the latest CU also will automatically encrypt C: with bitlocker, with VMK sealed by TPM only, no recovery key.

the non-updated 26100.1 is broken, OOBE just doesn't work and you get a desktop where the only things you can do are shift+F10 for cmd or ctrl+shift+F10 for admin cmd.

the latest update removes all that, and only creates an admin account on the ctrl+alt+del screen if the system is considered unlocked (booted with testsigning, secure boot off or cipolicy not loaded). also, shift+F10 to open a shell will only work on systems considered "unlocked" in the aforementioned manner.

screenshots included from my playing around. I couldn't do much of the intended behaviour as I don't have any aad account to log in with. if you're on mastodon, please view on original server, as there are more than four screenshots included.

Miltä kuulostaa tietokone, jossa ei ole lainkaan käyttöjärjestelmää ja johon ei edes voi asentaa käyttöjärjestelmää?

No, sehän on periaatteessa moderni versio vanhasta kunnon "tyhmästä päätteestä", joita vaikkapa yliopistoissa on ollut laajalti käytössä.

Microsoftin uutuus Windows 365 Link on äärimmäisen pikkuinen tietokone, joka suoratoistaa pilvipalvelimella olevaa Windows -tietokonetta käyttäjän käyttöön.
