Stealthy UEFI malware bypassing Secure Boot enabled by unpatchable Windows flaw
“Researchers on Wednesday announced a major cybersecurity find—the world’s first-known instance of real-world malware that can hijack a computer’s boot process even when Secure Boot and other advanced protections are enabled and running on fully updated versions of Windows.
Dubbed BlackLotus, the malware is what’s known as a UEFI bootkit.“
Allen says
Hello,Eric
Reading the paper about the black lotus virus was interesting. So even with the most recent version of Windows, you won’t be safe until Microsoft or the maker of your motherboard provides the requisite deactivation code to the vulnerable keys? Right.?
The Windows Bitlocker program might theoretically also be harmed by the said program or targeted by it. I think UEFI is used by bitlocker. Bitlocker should be open source for yet another reason.
