12th Gen Intel Core BIOS 3.08 Release

Sadly, the Intel FWs really seem to be the last thing they think about.
For the AMD FW13 they also released a new driver bundle beta that includes new Goodix Fingerprint Sensor drivers that also comes with a firmware update to fix security issues. As I understand all the 3 Intel FW13 should have the same fingerprint sensor and the same security issues (and the firmware version is the same as from the Beta LVFS update for the fingerprint sensor that was not limited to any specific model).
That is sth. that they could easily communicate or release for all of us. But silence for the Intel models.

Maybe affected by the fact that FW so far only had the model-specific monolithic driver bundles that install all of the drivers and they do not want to release a new installer that downgrades many Intel drivers just to beta test the new fingerprint driver and firmware.
But still. Another way to make us feel like 3rd class customers. And avoiding that would have taken 2 sentences posted about it somewhere.
