that update prevented certain processors in the Intel Tiger Lake family

Please note that the 'dis_ucode_ldr' kernel command line option can be
added in the boot menu to disable microcode loading for system recovery.

We apologize for the inconvenience.

Original advisory details:

 Moritz Lipp, Michael Schwarz, Andreas Kogler, David Oswald, Catherine
 Easdon, Claudio Canella, and Daniel Gruss discovered that the Intel Running
 Average Power Limit (RAPL) feature of some Intel processors allowed a side-
 channel attack based on power consumption measurements. A local attacker
 could possibly use this to expose sensitive information. (CVE-2020-8695)

 Ezra Caltum, Joseph Nuzman, Nir Shildan and Ofir Joseff discovered that
 some Intel(R) Processors did not properly remove sensitive information
 before storage or transfer in some situations. A local attacker could
 possibly use this to expose sensitive information. (CVE-2020-8696)

 Ezra Caltum, Joseph Nuzman, Nir Shildan and Ofir Joseff discovered that
 some Intel(R) Processors did not properly isolate shared resources in some
 situations. A local attacker could possibly use this to expose sensitive
 information. (CVE-2020-8698)");
