Intel processors have a critical flaw inside their Management Engine, a deeply hidden separate processor inside the primary processor that is entirely independent of any operating system that is available to outside managers. Unfortunately, the flaws make it available to hackers as well. This has potential to affect Macs which also use Intel processors as well. PING!

So — the most any of us on your pinglist can do is wait for Intel (and Apple) to implement fixes — if it can even be done outside Intel’s silicon?
