Acer Answers Security & Vulnerabilities

Acer Swift 3 Vulnerability May Allow Deactivation of Critical Protections Allowing Read/Write Access to the System Management Mode

VULNERABILITY DETAILS

Researchers have identified a vulnerability that may allow deactivation of critical protections used for the TSEG region, which stores SMM code, after the system has booted. This may allow a privileged attacker to deactivate the configured TSEG region protections and thus obtain read/write access to the System Management Mode (SMM), thus fully compromising it.

Impact Scope

Acer Swift 3 with BIOS v1.10A or older

Resolution

Acer has released a BIOS update (v1.11) to address this concern. We recommend downloading and updating your BIOS immediately. You can find the latest BIOS for your device on our Drivers and Manuals site.
