Panic?
By Yapa (not verified) on Thu, 03/19/2009 - 11:42am.

Most new (less than 2 year old) machines already lock the SMRAM register in the bios, therefore preventing access to the SMM.

The OS could also prevent access to the SMM by locking the SMRAM register early in the boot process, preventing access.

The complexity of such a "root-kit" and writing the low level drivers for use in SMM greatly reduce an outbreak of this threat.

Bit too late.
