How to connect an Acer Swift laptop to an external display
How can I connect my Acer Swift laptop to an external monitor? Acer Swift series laptops do not have an HDMI port to output video to an external monitor. Instead, these models use a USB-C port to output video to an external monitor. If your model has more than one USB-C port, you will need to use the port labeled for video output. You can see an example in the image below. You can use the methods below to connect your Swift laptop to an external display. Use a USB-C to USB-C cable to connect directly to a USB-C port on a monitor Use a USB-C to HDMI cable to connect to an HDMI port on an external display Use a USB-C to DisplayPort adapter to connect from a USB-C port on the notebook, to a display port on an external display Note: Acer has not qualified third party adapters or cables, so we are unable to recommend or guarantee compatibility with third party adapters and cables.
Acer Swift 3 Vulnerability May Allow Deactivation of Critical Protections Allowing Read/Write Access to the System Management Mode
VULNERABILITY DETAILS Researchers have identified a vulnerability that may allow deactivation of critical protections used for the TSEG region, which stores SMM code, after the system has booted. This may allow a privileged attacker to deactivate the configured TSEG region protections and thus obtain read/write access to the System Management Mode (SMM), thus fully compromising it. Impact Scope Acer Swift 3 with BIOS v1.10A or older Resolution Acer has released a BIOS update (v1.11) to address this concern. We recommend downloading and updating your BIOS immediately. You can find the latest BIOS for your device on our Drivers and Manuals site. Credit Acer thanks Enrique Nissim, Krzysztof Okupski and Joseph Tartaro from IOActive for reporting this issue.

Intel® Microarchitectural Data Sampling Vulnerabilities in Modern Processors
CVE-2018-12126, CVE-2018-12127, CVE-2018-12130, and CVE-2019-11091 On May 14, 2019, Intel® and other industry partners shared details and information about a new group of vulnerabilities collectively called Microarchitectural Data Sampling (MDS). MDS (some media refer to it as “ZombieLoad”, “RIDL”, and “Fallout”) is a sub-class of previously disclosed speculative execution side channel vulnerabilities and is comprised of four related techniques. Under certain conditions, MDS provides a program the potential means to read data that program otherwise would not be able to see. MDS techniques are based on a sampling of data leaked from small structures within the CPU using a locally executed speculative execution side channel. Practical exploitation of MDS is a very complex undertaking. MDS does not, by itself, provide an attacker with a way to choose the data that is leaked. VULNERABILITY DETAILS: CVEID: CVE-2018-12126 Microarchitectural Store Buffer Data Sampling (MSBDS): Store buffers on some microprocessors utilizing speculative execution may allow an authenticated user to potentially enable information disclosure via a side channel with local access. CVEID: CVE-2018-12127 Microarchitectural Load Port Data Sampling (MLPDS): Load ports on some microprocessors utilizing speculative execution may allow an authenticated user to potentially enable information disclosure via a side channel with local access. CVEID: CVE-2018-12130 Microarchitectural Fill Buffer Data Sampling (MFBDS): Fill buffers on some microprocessors utilizing speculative execution may allow an authenticated user to potentially enable information disclosure via a side channel with local access. CVEID: CVE-2019-11091 Microarchitectural Data Sampling Uncacheable Memory (MDSUM): Uncacheable memory on some microprocessors utilizing speculative execution may allow an authenticated user to potentially enable information disclosure via a side channel with local access. IMPACT SCOPE: All Intel Processors except selected 8th and 9th Generation Intel® Core™ processors, as well as the 2nd Generation Intel® Xeon® Scalable Processor Family. For additional information, please visit the Intel Security Center . RESOLUTION: Acer is working closely with its processor and OS vendors to address certain microarchitectural data sampling (MDS) methods which can affect many modern microprocessor architectures. We recommend that customers limit their risk by following common security best practices and by applying the latest OS and firmware updates as soon as they become available. Affected Models: Microsoft is making available Intel-validated microcode updates for Windows 10 operating systems. These microcode updates will be released at a later date. The Microsoft hotfix will be used to update the microcode.
