Intel Dynamic Platform and Thermal Framework CVE-2019-0134 Vulnerability

[NC021]

I am being alerted to a vulnerability and have been unable to find a resolution with an updated driver.   Does anyone know where I can obtain the latest driver to fix this vulnerability (newer than  Intel® Dynamic Platform and Thermal Framework v8.3.10208.5643) ?

My laptop is an HP Spectre X360 - 15t-bl100 running Windows 10 64 bit.

Sure.

Here is the latest compatible version from the software and driver download portal for your laptop on the HP servers.

This driver is actually older than the driver I have installed so it will not fix the issue.

Good point.

Is that Windows update that is providing you with the warning?

Hi, @NC021 

Here is the latest driver HP has for notebooks with the Intel 8th generation core processors:

Intel Dynamic Platform and Thermal Framework Driver 

8.7.10802.26924

Can I just uninstall the Intel Dynamic Platform and Thermal Framework, what is it needed for?

[Paul_Tikkanen]

I don't recommend doing that.

The Intel Dynamic Platform and Thermal Framework provides system temperature and power utilization information for the system thermal protection to function properly.

Ok, then is there a new version of it that I can update to?

[Paul_Tikkanen]

I just gave you the latest driver HP has for your notebook's hardware, and it is newer than the version you posted was currently installed.
