@sonix
What did you do to fix the bios last time so i could modify it with ubu and use fpt to flash ?
I got a fixed bios from you.

*** = New found ones!


Here we go again....

It's just the tip of the iceberg. Look here if you can read german or search vor V5 (ret2spec/spectreRSB). There are also rumours about new variants uncovered soonest next month, depends on how far countermeasures/patches are ready than.

I wonder if the chip giants will still adress them, since it seems they were already not capable to fix the first two within a decent time. Was a real mess already.

With last version (1.70 RC1) there are no more errors when upgrading cpu microcodes on Z77 boards. I'm tempted to try.

I have translated the link with Chrome browser. Thank you very much for the link.

"CPU gaps ret2spec and SpecterRSB discovered" it says. (As of 24.07.2018) So those are the newest troubles....

@SoniX

I have found a bug I think, when updating ethernet controller on Asus "Rampage-IV-Extreme-ASUS-4901.cap" file with UBU_v1.70.rc1-fixed

Started displaying:
Network
[Current Version]
EFI Intel PRO/1000 UNDI - 5.5.23
OROM Intel Boot Agent GE - 1.3.72

[Available Version]
EFI Intel Gigabit UNDI - 0.0.19
EFI Intel PRO/1000 UNDI - 8.3.10
OROM Intel Boot Agent CL - 0.1.13
OROM Intel Boot Agent GE - 1.5.86

After the update process it becomes:
EFI Intel Gigabit UNDI - 0.0.19
OROM Intel Boot Agent CL - 0.1.13

First bug is,
it has chosen CL for GE!

Second bug is, it said,
For compatibility of the DEVID,
it is possible to install up to versions 6.6.04 and/or 1.5.62 --> but integrated 0.0.19 and CL - 0.1.13

At UBU_v1.69.17.4 for example, it was integrating:

EFI Intel Gigabit UNDI - 5.5.23 --> 6.6.04 correct! --> Now, 0.0.19 not correct!
OROM Intel Boot Agent GE - 1.3.72 --> GE - 1.5.86 correct! --> Now, CL - 0.1.13 not correct! (GE --> CL also false!)

@karakarga
In the full UEFI mode, show that in the BIOS settings, you do not have tabs NIC 82579.
And in the CSM mode, BootAgent does not work.

@SoniX

So I have to use UBU_v1.69.17.4 for updating Asus Rampage-IV-Extreme network adapter bios, right?

@karakarga
After upgrading to new versions of EFI Gigabit and BootAgent CL 0.x.xx, what does not work for you?

@SoniX

I did not test with new ones, as I said earlier, they seemed like a bug to me, version numbers dropped. Are those ones safe to use then?

Reasons:
- For compatibility of the DEVID,
it is possible to install up to versions 6.6.04 and/or 1.5.62
- GE --> CL mismatch
