[QUOTE="NightShade, post: 3162097, member: 29706"] News is coming out from some of the cited sources in the article that it's all BS. [URL]https://www.zdnet.com/article/security-researcher-cited-in-supermicro-chip-hack-investigation-casts-doubt-on-story/[/URL] A ton of the information is brought into question and my guess is someone figures that the BMC chip is at blame. That chip allows remote access however you would have to have internal network access to even make it a viable hack I would imagine that most large corporations physically separate access to the IPMI function from the general network. Not to mention that the supposed hack is more related to out of date software on the IMPI interface rather than a hardware hack. [/QUOTE]
