Hi,
Don't worry, x86 is hard to understand IMO. I often feel like an
archaeologist when trying to understand it.

cb itself can't receive commands from the OS. The payload, especially
SeaBIOS can through interrupts. Choosing a payload which only starts
the Kernel (FILO) should make it impossible for the OS to call BIOS-
code.
Of course modern boards still have the Management-engine which can do
anything behind the OS.
