Description Zombie Ryushu 2017-06-10 11:29:31 CEST
A simple tool that tells you whether AMT is enabled and provisioned on Linux systems. Requires that the mei_me driver (part of the upstream kernel) be loaded.
Comment 1 Zombie Ryushu 2017-06-10 11:30:16 CEST
If run on a system with no AMT, output will look like:

Intel AMT: DISABLED

If AMT is enabled but not provisioned, output will look like:

Intel AMT is present
AMT is unprovisioned

In this state, AMT is not vulnerable to CVE-2017-5689.

If AMT is enabled and provisioned, output will look like:

Intel AMT is present
AMT is provisioned
Flash: 9.5.40
Netstack:	9.5.40
AMTApps:	9.5.40
AMT:	9.5.40
Sku:	8200
VendorID:	8086
Build Number:	1892
Recovery Version:	9.5.40
Recovery Build Num:	1892
Legacy Mode:   False

If AMT is enabled and provisioned and the AMT version is between 6.0 and 11.2, and you have not upgraded your firmware, you are vulnerable to CVE-2017-5689. Disable AMT in your system firmware.

Assigning this package request to all packagers collectively. On a voluntary basis, one of them might, if there are no license or other legal issues, want to integrate it to the distribution and maintain it for bug and security fixes.
