Hello, I would join Drew in asking a question about CVE-2017-9417/Broadpwn. My main concern is if this flaw in a firmware above can affect laptop/desktop/server Linux systems? So far I see two contradicting answers: "he could reproduce the crash with the standard Linux firmware [on a mobile phone]" and "I do not think that Broadpwm is a problem". Can someone please clarify? I'm also trying to reach Broadcom guys via different channels with this question, no reply for now. Best regards, Vladis Dronov | Red Hat, Inc. | Product Security Engineer
