I thought this was something about firmware updates at first and I was writing some shit about how this is expected behaviour from Windows update... But holy shit megacorps are using The Microsoft firmware repository to distribute malware???? And there was no protection of verification to prevent this whatsoever??? there are so many malicious actors right now crafting some insane software supply chain attacks with this information lmao
