UEFI is just another M$ abomination 8-(
In this specific vulnerability, I wonder how possible it is to modify that boot logo remotely?
Wouldn't exploiting this vuln require local access?
As in all things, open firmware is the way to go:

Then again, newer CPUs have a host of other problems, like only supporting platforms where rolling your own boot firmware / UEFI is next to impossible.
Personally I think the CPU has a much lower attack surface than something like UEFI (microcode updates are also pretty tiny), so I would rather have an outdated CPU than an outdated / vulnerable UEFI implementation.
