![]() There are now multiple plugins using drm_dp_aux_dev interface which may potentially be combined with an amdgpu. Prevent exercising this interface with any plugin using DP aux unless a new enough kernel is installed. |

MSR
Introduction
This plugin checks if the Model-specific registers (MSRs) indicate the Direct Connect Interface (DCI) is enabled.
DCI allows debugging of Intel processors using the USB3 port. DCI should always be disabled and locked on production hardware as it allows the attacker to disable other firmware protection methods.
The result will be stored in a security attribute for HSI.
External interface access
This plugin requires read access to /sys/class/msr
.
