#revault — Public Fediverse posts

Live and recent posts from across the Fediverse tagged #revault, aggregated by home.social.

  1. 🚨 Cisco’s Talos found firmware flaws in Dell’s ControlVault3 module that let attackers bypass Windows login, implant persistent code, and spoof biometric access. 😳 Physical access is required—but the implications are serious for corporate and government users running Latitude or Precision devices. The kicker? These implants can survive a full OS reinstall. Patches started rolling out in March, but given Dell’s track record with slow firmware patch uptake, many systems are likely still vulnerable. 🤦🏻‍♂️

    TL;DR
    ⚠️ ReVault flaw affects Dell business laptops
    🧠 Exploits fingerprint, smartcard, OS login
    🔐 Implant survives OS reinstalls
    🛠️ Firmware patch available since March
