Just about every Windows and Linux device vulnerable to new LogoFAIL firmware attack
UEFIs booting Windows and Linux devices can be hacked by malicious logo images.

I actually am in the market for a new mobo and cpu.
Are there any mobo's nowdays that don't use UEFI? I just want an old traditional style BIOS with a jumper to restore it from a ROM chip if I get any malware, so I can actually trust my hardware.
I did force myself to deal with UEFI for the sake of windows, but gaming has gotten good enough on Linux, I don't actually need to dual boot windows anymore.
Am I asking too much?
No, and trying to use a pure BIOS system these days is a headache.
You can always just reflash your firmware from a trusted OS via FWUPD.
Some enterprise grade stuff still use BIOS. But I haven't messed with one for over 6 years
More like they have an emulated BIOS mode that is still part of UEFI.
That's called CSM, and Intel removed it in late 2020. I'm not sure if AMD still has it, but they still have S3 sleep afaik. Go Team Red for your next buy, I am too.
