Intel-sa-00086 Detection Tool For Mac

  1. Intel released a detection tool that runs on Windows and Linux systems (Apple desktops and laptops appear to be not at-risk). The tool(s) generate registry entries and/or XML files, making them very useful in orchestrating the identification of vulnerable systems.
  2. How To Use The Intel SA-00086 Detection Tool by Leon Chan November 28, 2017 at 5:02 PM Intel has created a program to help you find o ut if your Intel-based Windows or Linux system is at risk from the recently announced vulnerabilities, Intel SA-00086, found in the Intel Management Engine.
  3. In light of Intel’s recent announcement of the vulnerabilities found and fixed in its Management Engine (ME), referred to as INTEL-SA-00086, many OEMs have begun issuing firmware updates for.

Did you run the detection tool on a virtual machine or are you running Windows on your Mac? I run OS High Sierra, but there is no detection tool available for Mac.

Just ran the tool on a Surface Pro 4 and it was found to be vulnerable as well.

I'm pretty sure that SP4 and anything released after SP4 is vulnerable.

My Surface Pro 4 was found to be vulnerable as well. When will we get a fix for this vulnerability? Other major PC manufactures have a software patch in the works to be released soon on their PC lines and I would think Microsoft would be right there with them. I bought a Surface Pro because I thought it was a superior tablet but if you don't back it to fix major security vulnerabilities found in the software or hardware used by your products then it is not better then the competition.

We need a fix Microsoft and we we need it ASAP!

Same issue on my Surface pro 4 but not on my Surface 3 as mentioned here. Can the ME be disabled without affecting usual usage of Surface 4 pros?

True = I have a surface laptop that's vurnable as well.

Just want to point out this is not just a vurnability anymore their is an existing exploit for this and parts of this will be presented at Blackhat UK 2017 06-12-17. I really hope Microsoft puts out a patch before that.

The best solution would be to disable Intel ME completly :-)

So a company as big as microsoft cant stand to their under 20 products and fix this issue quickly, but Asus and Lenovo can release patches for many more systems? Hard to recommend the Surface Laptop if not even the Security aspect is true.

Hi everyone,

Microsoft is aware of the Intel Management Engine vulnerability (Intel-SA-00086). The Intel vulnerability detection tool currently lists Microsoft Surface devices as vulnerable to this security advisory.

Microsoft has investigated the issue and found the following:

  1. Remote exploit of this vulnerability requires Intel Active Management Technology (AMT). Current Surface devices do not allow remote connectivity to the ME because our devices do not run AMT.
  2. Local exploit of this vulnerability requires Direct Connect Interface (DCI) access via USB, which is not provided on Surface devices.

Intel Sa 00086 Samsung

Because of this, we believe exploits using this vulnerability are significantly reduced on Surface devices. We care deeply about ensuring our devices are reliable and secure and are working with Intel to generate fixes for current devices, which we expect to release in the near future.

Thanks,

Greg
