CTS-Labs is very forthright with its statement, having seemingly pre-briefed some press at the same time it was notifying AMD, and directs questions to its PR firm. The full whitepaper can be seen here, at safefirmware.com, a website registered on 6/9 with no home page and seemingly no link to CTS-Labs. Something doesn't quite add up here.

Anandtech is reporting on the situation more than the flaws. That does require covering what the flaws are though. Not covering it at all isn't exactly performing good journalism either.
