IMPORTANT SECURITY UPDATES!

OK, update me when they're ready!

 

That suddenly again recommended 'C2' version for 'SKL-S' is also just the same old Spectre November update they used before and which you already have in your Prema BIOS. It wasn't affected by the December/January code changes that caused instability.

 

Amen to that, this is good news!

 

Many thanks, Prema.

 

Thanks for the heads-up. Hopefully you can help us maintain our machines secure
Thank you again

Since you have locked my thread at http://forum.notebookreview.com/threads/tpm-security-update.813300/ I am going to reply you here

1. I have not taken files from you. Get real, you cook BIOS and not TPM firmware files and they come from Infineon..Infineon even includes a License PDF which you have removed from your package.
2. I waiting to get the most updated files and did not take it from you. They came from another source with a lot more firmware files including the 5.50.x but I removed them and only kept the latest including the 5.50 which you did not include in yours.
3. There is no violation of terms and conditions or re-posting as my TPM thread was created on 1st Feb and you created it on 2nd Feb which clearly makes YOU in violation of T&C of the forum and re-posting.
4. It is not a repackage. The firmwares are from a different source and include a lot more versions. Also the TPM update utility is a new one (you have packaged an old one) and takes configuration input from a config file (which the older one your included cannot do).
5. I also created simple batch scripts to people cannot get confused with so many firmwares and commands and can just type a small name and be done with it.
6. I posted here asking if anyone has the TPM update and nobody had one (including you) so I found it on google, updated my TPM and created a guide on the 1st Feb for everyone to update to 5.62.x which is a secure firmware and you posted your guide on 2nd Feb. If posting an similar thread is violation of T&C then you have violated it..if posting an update is not a violation then neither you or me have violated anything.
7. My discussion with you was never about getting the latest TPM firmware but rather about you inability to understand TPM and the illogical excuses you were making again and again to hide behind your ego..which jumped up again as you locked my thread without waiting for my response.

Here is a link to the firmwares I have with a lot more firmwares and updated TPM update utility

I simply asked the Mods to remove a duplicated post containing the very files I uploaded also in order not to confuse user:

1, 2 & 4 > Sure thing you used the files I uploaded, they are time stamped by myself and have their original factory time removed buddy (Edit: original unaltered factory stamps have also been provided to the Mods as proof of origin). You walked right into a trap and got caught red handed:

Spoiler

3: You violated the T&C of premamod.team which are are also included in the 'readme'

5: All user have to do with the files in the OP is type 'update' and hit 'enter. Too much?

6: I answered your request for a TPM update and posted all 5.63 & 4.43 files as the version you posted in this very thread was outdated by months and only contained a single update.
Here the deleted quote.

7. You requested the latest files (the first post from you in this thread).
I also already said twice that I mixed the signing info with TBT while trying to answer your questions, not enough? Admitting to be wrong is a healthy thing also for that 'ego', you should try it sometime.

Sorry, but I won't see any more of you as you are going on the ignore list now.

 

I have posted the full firmware archive I got and they are from Infineon and even though you have removed the Infineon License PDF from your archive, please don't claim it as your own. The one you posted contains the older TPM Update utility and missing many other firmware. Only call it your own if you have cooked it..you and I have merely distributed Infineon firmwares and thats about it.

Duplicate is something posted after the actual post..clearly my post on 1st Feb came before your post on 2nd Feb..and I have posted the full firmware archive from Infineon so please stop calling it yours. Too bad if you had this update long ago and was sitting on it..I guess you are pissed that I uploaded it before you..ego problem.

Your archive contains far more confusing files than just typing "update" because you used an old version of TPM update utility and had to type commands again and again.



I asked for a TPM fix on 1st Feb in this post and then after finding an update myself made another post right after it..these are post #212 and #213 are no other posts in middle so you did not post anything between me asking for a fix and posting an update myself. One of the members asked a new thread to be created and I edited and moved to a new one.. here is that post with the quote

No, you did not confuse TPM with TBT and your post clearly shows you incorrect knowledge of TPM here:

TPM, Endorsement Keys, Clearing TPM, stuck Keys, Microsoft TPM documentation..blah blah..No, you did not mix TPM with TBT as you were talking about TPM all the time and then TBT was just an excuse trying to cover up lack of technical understanding of TPM and excuses to hide it..TPM and TBT can be confusing if you are just typing it but providing Microsoft Links and trying to answer specific TPM terminology is not confusion..but again your ego problem.

 

@Prema do you mind fixing the link for ME 11.X firmware update?

Mega link is dead

 

I think there's a new MEFW incoming possibly 3448 or higher.

 

Prema has uploaded new ME 11 FW. @Falkentyne @Papusan @hmscott @VICKYGAMEBOY @BeastsForever.TheDragon
Here is the screenie:


Thanks @Prema I really had a minor heart attack when I couldn't see any progress bar.

 

thanks a lot.

 

Update done.

However after update Control Center simply died. System says that requires reboot to launch it but after a few tries the result is the same. Reinstalling CCC not working. Anyone has any ideas?

Ok The solution is to install the newest CCC (for example for P6 i have used one from PA70).
THX Prema.

Hopefully we can see an update from you in the near future

Edit: Nevermind, found the answer elsewhere.

 

All TM-Model PremaMods dated 22nd February+ are already using Intel's latest Spectre2 fixes.
The currently recommended fix for Skylake is already implemented since November as they rolled back to that code. You can also install it manually via Windows Update:

http://www.catalog.update.microsoft.com/Search.aspx?q=KB4090007

DEAR RE-SELLER:

A small warning regarding Clevo's new TM-Series BIOS (P7: 1.05.09 & P8: 1.05.08), which are send to you this week.
They are labeled as "Spectre 2" fix, but they are not. Clevo is using old and wrong microcodes on all of them.
Don't deploy them to your customer!

For P8 the proper Spectre 2 stock BIOS is 1.05.09+ and for P7 1.05.10+

 

Mine is a P775DM3-G

No BIOS for it yet!

That's stupid, to release a BIOS with the old microcode update knowing the ranbom reboots it had

 

to all of you who are worried sick about the Spectre Meltdown stuff and the new microcode that Intel released here's an update i found that will only work so far on SKYLAKE:

Microsoft will distribute and patch Spectre microcode via Windows update

http://www.guru3d.com/news-story/microsoft-will-distribute-spectre-microcode-via-windows-update.html

You can grab said updates here:

https://www.catalog.update.microsoft.com/Search.aspx?q=KB4090007

Here's my InSpectre now after applying it:

 

The MS update is currently only good for Skylake.

 

Thanks for all the hard work over the years! I'm afraid my old P170SM-A is too old for the TPM firmware update, though. The tool is showing version 4.32.879.0 which seems to be significantly behind any firmware update versions I can find and thus fails to update with the current tool. Is there something I'm missing?

 

EDIT:

TPM package updated with the firmware for your model!

ENJOY!

 

Everyone froze in anticipation of magic ...

 

@Prema sorry that I write here (((you could not send me a bios on the P870DMG I want to replace the processor i5 6600K on i7 7700K thanks in advance ....

I'm stuck at a frequency of 4400mhz and poluchchuu throttling that is very distressing ((((

 

Thanks a ton! I'm grabbing it now.

 

Thanks @Prema for the updates

 

thanks``````````

 

Hi, I cannot get access to the website, I have run the Intel tool and it gave me the vulnerability text. My system is P650HS
Where can i get the tool to patch this?
Thanks

 

If your ISP blocks wordpress access just use a proxy:

@Prema

Can you PM me when you have some time, please? Thanks.

 

Just a heads up:

Microsoft has just (13th March) updated the above Spectre 2 CPU Microcode patches to add KabyLake and CoffeeLake codes alongside the previous available Skylake code on OS level.

I have also updated the OP with the patch link and list of their CPU codes.

 

Installed and working Had to enable the Spectre protection as it was disabled by default in OS. (Used the InSpectre tool to enable running Admin privs)

 

@Vasudev Thx for the rep, and so far I haven't encountered any slowdowns. MS mentioned that you'll encounter performance loss the more the system uses kernel calls, and that they are working to minimize that with Windows 10. Windows 7 users will feel it more, as that OS uses it a lot for font rendering, etc.

 

I disabled the protection just to get some performance back.

 

It's your system, not mine. I prefer to have security fixes.

 

The performance hit was too much! retopline option has less perf. hit BTW.

 

I would personally only disable the security patches via InSpectre for benching...

 

After installing the KB4090007 update, the “System” process keeps running at ~20% all the time and make the CPU hot and that causes CPU fan to always turned on.

I tried uninstalling the update and the “System” process goes back to normal... Anyone also has this problem?

 

Wow, that's not good, wonder what it is doing? Maybe open up the Task Manager => Performance => Resource Monitor, and look at open files - read / write activity.

It might just have been a coincidental running of a scheduled task that came up after reboot the first time, and was out of scope after you backed it out?

I'd try again at a different time of day maybe, and then dig deep into what is running and what it is doing.

 

You could try the uCode(Microcode)fix instead of the Microcode patch from Win Update Catalog. Latest microcodes is already added into the scrift. Read you up how to use it in the tread.

FYI... If you use ThrottleStop or similar tools for undervolt and oc'ing, try to resett the prefered values. Or click apply and save again in FIVR window. The microcode patch update from Micro$haft screw up the ThrottleStop settings.

 

If that solution is based on the VMware microcode update driver, then it won't work for Spectre. The driver/microcode isn't loaded when the kernel is initialized, and the OS won't enable the mitigating code. The MS OS patch is more effective.

 

Just re-installed the update… So far everything seems to be OK, I will monitor it more closely this time.

Ah… I’m using ThrottleStop. Gonna do what you suggested. Thanks.

Thanks for the heads up!

 

Please, give us feedback

I tested the uCode before I downloaded the Microcode patch from Win Update. Everything was showed Green in InSpectre tool. But Yeah, MS can can inject the microcode more effectly with the patch.

 

@Prema, this is the correct bios against Spectre/Meltdown?

 

Confirmative

 

when i tried to update my tpm on my asus z270h mobo windows 10 x64 i got a error message this app can't run on your pc contactyour software provider

 

This is only for TPM chip models used in Clevo's...

 

The following thread pointed me to the OP of this thread to get a "Prema ME11 tool", but I can't find it: http://forum.notebookreview.com/thr...-17-r3-or-possibly-other-bgas-as-well.813803/

Can someone help?

 

@HunterZ0 Here is the website it's on if the patch is what you're looking for.

https://premamod.wordpress.com

 

And where do I go on that website to get the "Prema ME11 tool"?

 

Select Menu and then you find it in Maintenance.
