I'm still trying to figure out what this is actually about. I keep 
seeing references to some sort of data corruption issue involving 
Panther and Oxford chipsets, but haven't yet found anything spelling out 
what the issue actually is. I've kind of pieced together that the 
vulnerability almost exclusively affects older firmware for the Oxford 
922 chipset and manifests when a drive is connected during the boot 
process. Correct, or have I missed something?
