    Similar vulnerability threat as the Intel ME bug. Annoying for security-critical applications where you start worrying about hardware security, but virtually no real-world threat. Might be useful for users wishing to disable security processors though.

      Unfortunately PSP is required for x86 core initialisation. I’m not sure if this can actually be bypassed.
