@Perry_Flaugh, just a couple of quick corrections to your post:
- The vulnerabilities that Framework posted in Sep 2022 are not addressed in BIOS 3.05.
Binarly, a firmware security analysis firm, discovered several issues in Insyde BIOS that impact the Framework Laptop (12th Gen Intel Core) with BIOS releases 3.05 and earlier.
The CVEs enumerated as resolved are only found in the 3.06 BIOS update.
- Not all 12 Gen Framework laptops shipped with 3.05. As I indicated in my initial post, mine shipped with BIOS 3.04. FWIW, 3.05 was never released to the public or in beta (though I personally would have skipped it if it had, given the absence of the security fixes).
