Intel has confirmed it has a bug in its remote server management tool. The tool, known as Management Engine, permits administrators of IT systems to access devices remotely to apply updates or troubleshoot problems for users. The bug allows unverified code to be run on Intel chipsets, so the intruder can gain control of devices. The Management Engine bug affects most Intel chips, which are embedded in most servers, personal computers, and IoT devices. Meaning millions of devices may be vulnerable.
