A new security flaw has been found in Intel hardware which could enable hackers to access corporate laptops remotely, Finnish cybersecurity specialist F-Secure said on Friday.
F-Secure said in a statement that the flaw had nothing to do with the "Spectre" and "Meltdown" vulnerabilities recently found in the micro-chips that are used in almost all computers, tablets and smartphones today.
Rather, it was an issue within Intel Active Management Technology (AMT), "which is commonly found in most corporate laptops, (and) allows an attacker to take complete control over a user's device in a matter of seconds," the cybersecurity firm said.
"The issue potentially affects millions of laptops globally."

이 문제는 현재의 멜트다운,스펙터 보안문제와 다르며 더욱 심각성이 높다고 합니다.
AMT에 관련된 문제라고 합니다..
AMT는 AMD에 없으므로 인텔에만 해당이 되겠습니다.
작년에 큰 문제가 되었던 ME보안문제와도 연관이 됩니다.
ME보안문제가 AMT와 연계되면 리모트로도 ME보안문제를 이용하여 해킹이 가능하다고 이야기가 나왔는데
그게 실제로 가능하게 된 모양입니다.
지옥문이 이제 활짝 열린거 같습니다.
