The following table shows available UEFI firmware/BIOS security updates for LGA 2011-3 (Haswell & Broadwell) motherboards from Thomas-Krenn. In the columns of the table security flaws are listed, which require UEFI firmware/BIOS updates. For each mainboard it is noted whether an update is already available for the respective vulnerability. Information about other mainboards can be found in the article BIOS security updates.

In the case of security flaws that affect the CPU microcode (e.g. Spectre or L1TF), the microcode can in many cases also be applied alternatively via the operating system.
