Driver file for TPM 2.0 addressing CVE-2019-1686 not provided as a Windows OS update

[Ricky Tigg]

Hello. Here are joined the specifications and troubleshooting information associated to the security processor as exhibited in Windows 11 22000.2124, in ASUS X507UA motherboard. In attachments, in the section TPM troubleshooter, the link tied to Learn more leads to st.com domain. The relevance of this link may be subject to interpretation in respect to whether it may be representative of the manufacturer of the involved component. I did not know how to interpret it.

It appears that the product software database maintained by Asus, which in available either on internet via the device support (asus.com domain) and MyAsus application (for Windows general-use-purpose OSs), has no available driver for download for this motherboard aimed to address CVE-2019-16863, that is presented as justification of the up-to-date recommendation. I understand that the acquisition of the respective file is a relevant quest in which this company may have a contribution. Regards.

Perhaps like thinking that security flaws in IC's and motherboards are going to be fixed retrospectively?? Thoughts and prayers to you there.. ASUS would be your primary relationship here.
