The piece states, "on April 25, Intel released a firmware fix for this
unnamed issue. It affects every Intel machine from Nehalem in 2008 to
Kaby Lake in 2017."

Has anyone here got a link describing or including the fix, either
directly from Intel, or from an OEM? At the moment, there are no
advisories listed at https://security-center.intel.com/advisories.aspx
newer than April 3, so presumably either the piece is false, or else
the firmware fix was released to OEMs but not publicly.
