AMD motherboard partners start rolling out BIOS updates with LogoFAIL bugfix

.

Thanks to AMD's AGESA updates, its motherboard partners have started rolling out BIOS updates containing a fix to protect the BIOS from LogoFAIL, a security flaw that allows the UEFI boot screen to be hijacked. LogoFAIL was discovered in Dec. 2023. 

Intel patched this vulnerability with Intel ME Version 16.1.30.2307 the same month it was reported. Although the issue was resolved by AMD's AGESA Version 1.2.0.b a few months ago, AMD released the latest 'c' version, which includes fixes for other vulnerabilities, a few weeks ago. As a result, some motherboard vendors, such as Gigabyte, have started releasing BIOS updates with the AGESA 'b' variation for some AMD chipsets, while Asus and MSI released BIOS updates with the latest AGESA update.
