UEFI requires the firmware and operating system loader (or kernel) to be size-matched; that is, a 64-bit UEFI firmware implementation can load only a 64-bit operating system (OS) boot loader or kernel (unless the CSM-based legacy boot is used) and the same applies to 32-bit.
LogoFAIL is a security vulnerability and exploit thereof that affects computer motherboard firmware with TianoCore EDK II, including Insyde Software's InsydeH2O modules and similar code in AMI and Phoenix firmware, which are commonly found on both Intel and AMD motherboards, and which enable loading of custom boot logos.
fwupd is an open-source daemon for managing the installation of firmware updates on Linux-based systems, developed by GNOME maintainer Richard Hughes. [1] It is designed primarily for servicing the Unified Extensible Firmware Interface (UEFI) firmware on supported devices via EFI System Resource Table (ESRT) and UEFI Capsule, which is supported in Linux kernel 4.2 and later.
UEFI Forum, Inc. is an alliance between technology companies to coordinate the development of the UEFI specifications. The board of directors includes representatives from twelve promoter companies: AMD, American Megatrends, ARM, Apple, Dell, Hewlett Packard Enterprise, HP Inc., Insyde Software, Intel, Lenovo, Microsoft, and Phoenix Technologies.
UEFITool is a software program for reading and modifying EEPROM images with UEFI firmware. [1] It is written in C++ using the Qt library. [2] Features include the ability to view the flash regions and to extract and import them. [3] UEFITool allows the user to search for hex and text patterns. [4] UEFITool presents UEFI firmware images in a ...
The original PXE client firmware extension was designed as an Option ROM for the IA-32 BIOS, so a personal computer (PC) was originally made PXE-capable by installing a network interface controller (NIC) that provided a PXE Option ROM. Today the client PXE code is directly included within the NIC's own firmware or as part of the UEFI firmware ...
The Platform Initialization Specification (PI Specification) is a specification published by the Unified EFI Forum that describes the internal interfaces between different parts of computer platform firmware. [1] This allows for more interoperability between firmware components from different sources.
An InsydeH20 screen. The company's product portfolio includes InsydeH2O BIOS (Insyde Software's implementation of the Intel Platform Innovation Framework for UEFI/EFI [1]), BlinkBoot, a UEFI-based boot loader for enabling Internet of Things devices, [2] and Supervyse, which is a full-featured systems management/BMC firmware for providing out-of-band remote management for server computers.
