Subject: Re: Do not allow MSR or Embedded Controller writes from userspace in secure boot case
Date: Wed, 7 Nov 2012 21:54:03 +0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20121107215403.GA7277@srcf.ucam.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <1352323699-52400-1-git-send-email-trenn-l3A5Bk7waGM@public.gmane.org>

Is there a case where modifying MSRs or EC registers can cause arbitrary 
code execution?
