Intel has halted patches for older chips addressing the Spectre vulnerability, according to a recent microcode update.
Intel is introducing hardware-based protections to its new chips to protect against the Spectre and Meltdown flaws that rocked the silicon industry when they were announced in early 2018.
Intel will pay up to $250,000 to researchers who identify bugs more severe than 9.0 on the CVSS scale.
Widespread reports of reboot issues on some Intel systems force the chip giant to pump the brakes on rolling out patches for side-channel vulnerabilities.
Intel says its firmware updates for Meltdown and Spectre are causing additional reboots and hits to performance.
Researchers say an unprotected Management Engine BIOS Extension can allow an attacker the ability to configure Intel’s AMT feature for remote access by a hacker.
