    Wouldn’t it be better to state that every UEFI device is affected, since the vulnerabilities are in the UEFI of the computers, but neither in Windows nor Linux?

      Wouldn’t get as much clicks. The layman doesn’t know what UEFI is nor ever heard of it but will go “OMG I USE WINDOWS!”

    Just about everybody’s computer is vulnerable to a near undetectable hack that will give complete control over the system. Merry Christmas.
