Confirmed: Thinkpads are hardware backdoored

>I found very interesting 0day vulnerability (looks rather like backdoor) in ThinnkPads, arbitrary SMM code execution

>X220 is the oldest one that I have checked, firmware ver 1.42 has the same vulnerable code

>It also leads to flash write protection bypass, SecureBoot bypass, Windows VSM bypass and other bad things. Details soon :)

>We're in
Fucking bullshit

Being able to flash shit from an EFI shell isn't a big deal.

Basically the equivalent of rooting a phone.

FREETARDS BTFO

Actually if it let you flash this would let you do shit like remove the whitelist for mpcie.

get your patches here

based Penryn series unaffected

blog.cr4.sh/2016/02/exploiting-smm-callout-vulnerabilities.html

But free software would remove this problem
This is a problem in proprietary software

You're blaming a car crash on a horse

Holy shit you're retarded.

Oh, gay so you can't modify the firmware or it won't boot.

>T420 and X220 affected
>T520 and W520 unaffected
manlets on suicide watch

>I don't know what is happening
>but I'll shitpost about it anyway!
why is Sup Forums full of idiots

explain this too me as if I'm a retard

Holy shit freetard damage controll is really fast.

>d-damage c-control

>if I post enough frogs I can obfuscate my stupidity
Just read a book nigger

thinkpad laptops can be hacked no matter what operating system or antivirus you have, and it looks like it's intentional

Sup Forums's favorite Thinkpad models are fucked. If you aren't a pleb, it's not an issue.

is it only if they have physical access or can it be done from anywhere

>my r400 isn't affected
Feels good.

He doesn't know

Manlets, when will they ever learn ?

You need to have physical access to the computer to use EFI shell and it lets you brick the computer or read ram, it isn't useful.

Wow it's fucking nothing

You can do it via Windows actually.

Am I retarded or is this windows only

Quality post

> tfw you got a libreboot x200

>Using anything later than T60
You goyim asked for this

this is old as fuck
I remember reading about this a year ago on reddit

>he buys lenovo thinkpads

LMFAO thinkpad has been shit tier ever since IBM sold it. fucking fag/g/ots

>he fell for the thinkpad meme

the point is that it's probably a backdoor that was created at the FBI's request so they don't need a subpoena to get your password

Hacking without a warrant or approval is illegal.

>t410 not affected
"vulnerability" discarded.

...

>He fell for the meme meme

The government is above the law

Evidence would be discarded if the FBI was forced to reveal their methods of accessing said evidence.

captcha: morl impasse

That

Lenovo was caught loading bloatware into the UEFI so it would persist even after formatting and reinstalling windows and they had one piece of bloatware that actually made your internet connection susceptible to being MITM'd.

Shady company

>SMM
>ring -1
>IntelME
>ring -3

With Intel, you don't own your computer. Someone else does, whenever they want.

>Sup Forums has been recommending LITERAL BOTNET for the past year

>funded by NASA shit posters to infiltrate Sup Forums users

My Thinkpad doesn't even have UEFI.

ha Sup Forums utterly btfo

Confirmed: You are a retard.

All hardware has "backdoors".

Sick facebook meme

Have another

>You need to have physical access
Oh wow it's fucking nothign
You're fucked if someone have access to your computer anyways, encrypted or not since they can fucking drug you and beat the password out of you with a baseball bat

>w510 not affected
based 510

ThinkPads aren't free dumbass. It's a uefi exploit for a specific set of hardware.

>Execute arbitrary code
>Bypass Secure Boot
>Denial of Service
>Escalation of Privilege


>Severity: Medium

HOLY MOTHER OF KEK

I saw this as well. Hearty laugh.

This confirms what dem niggaz been talking for quite a while already. Good job.

Medium :-D

Probably because it's not remotely executable

>NASA shitposters

If NASA can convince people the Earth is round then they can convince people to buy a thinkpad

>laptop from a chinese spying corporation is vulnerable

YOU DON'T FUCKING SAY

Y410P/510P (IdeaPad)Not Affected

So a typical day for chinkpad owners.

Holy shit I want this to happen.

Literally retarded.
See

The patch is only available for Windows users.
If you weren't using windows how would you solve this?

see

You spend 10 mins and download XP iso files

>Use the link below to obtain the BIOS in other file formats:
> BIOS Bootable CD

Implying anyone can say something once you've been hit with a baseball bat

Looks like the X201 isn't on there... I dodged a bullet by having an inferior model! Whooo hooo

Doesn't matter since most of you're neckbeard anyway
You'd spit out your password asap when someone hold a baseball bat and threatening you
And remember, if they have access to your laptop physically then they know who you're.
You're fucked no matter what.

This. If someone has physical access it's all ogre and that's always been true.

>he's a flat earther
How retarded can you get?

What about plausible deniability? You kan keep a truecrypt drive with a decoy OS.

Plot twist: You're the retard.

How do you not see the fucking sarcasm. Jesus christ.

>he's autistic enough to fall for my bait
How retarded can you get?

>"Oh shit, someone called me a retard on the internet for making retarded statements!"
>"LOL IT WAS SARCASM BRO I'M ONLY PRETENDING TO BE RETARDED YOU'RE THE RETARD"

This.
Also this.

m8o you are easily baited
to minimise further butthurt, lurk moar

You must be 18 or older to post on Sup Forums.

this

>that superfish or whatever the fuck man in the middle thing before
>now this

Won't be buying Lenovo, no way.

It was obvious bait
Not detecting a joke is a sign of autism

This

been here since 07, I've done lots of lurking.
>"He knows I wasn't pretending to be retarded in my first post."
>"I got it! HAHAHAH YOU'RE UNDER 18 GET B&"
Why do retards resort to childish tactics like this?
Also, stop samefagging.

you got baited and you are now in full damage control, you autist, you are making this worse

lurk moar

unless this is some meta bait, in which case 6/10, mildly annoyed

>there is no way multiple people think I am retarded
whatever preserves your ego bud

Old news is old.

>Sup Forums status: Told

The only people on Sup Forums pushing Thinkpads are PLA shills who want to push stupid Westerners to buy their spyware.

Not in ThinkPads. Read more carefully.
The only spyware you could get is Computrace or Intel AT, if it was enabled.

Stopping being a hipster.

>post search results
No mentions of "Thinkpad" on the results

nice photoshop, faggot

FreeDos? I've used it before to flash my BIOS. Couldn't stop sweating the whole time, but it worked fine.

>UEFI
>not using libre boot
>not using libre hardware

TOP KEK

Are you just counterbaiting me now?
I would just inspect element if I wanted to edit, but I am not samefagging

>still thinks libre hardware really exists
HAHAHAHAHAHA

>using so old shit that it can't run a lightweight website
Kek

Interesting..

I wonder if I can test this easily on my Libreboot Thinkpad to see how it works?
