Parses user-provided (DB) list of Apple Software Update CatalogURL .sucatalog links and saves all newer (since last run) EFI firmware package links into a text file. It removes any xml formatting, ignores false positives, removes duplicate links and sorts them in alphabetical order for easy comparison afterwards.
Dell PFS Update Extractor v5.0 is a complete refactor/re-design of the previous Dell PFS BIOS Extractor. The logic of the script has been re-written to be cleaner, smarter, faster and more robust to PFS format changes. Notable new features include:
1) Support for PFS Utilities section extraction, aside from the Firmware one
2) Support and proper extraction of Intel BIOS Guard protected Firmware
3) Support for parsing some newer PFS Information and Signature entries
4) Ability to show verbose output of extraction progress and PFS structures
5) Ability to better integrate the script to other projects via new parameters
6) Extensive code re-structuring in more modular form for future expansion
Fujitsu UPC BIOS Extractor v1.0
Parses Fujitsu UPC images and extracts their Tiano compressed SPI/BIOS firmware component. The output comprises only a final firmware component which is directly usable by end users.
Fujitsu SFX BIOS Extractor v2.1
Small rebranding
Parses Portwell UEFI Unpacker EFI images (usually named "Update.efi"), extracts their SPI/BIOS/UEFI/EC firmware components and shows all relevant info. It supports all Portwell UEFI Unpacker revisions and formats, including those which contain Tiano compressed files. The output comprises only final firmware components and utilities which are directly usable by end users.
Parses Phoenix SecureCore Technology (SCT) BIOS images and extracts their SPI/BIOS/UEFI firmware components. It supports all Phoenix SCT revisions and formats, including those which are originally LZMA compressed. The output comprises only final firmware components which are directly usable by end users.
Parses AMI UCP (Utility Configuration Program) BIOS images, extracts their SPI/BIOS/UEFI firmware components and shows all relevant info. It supports all AMI UCP revisions and formats, including those with nested AMI UCP or Insyde SFX structures. The output comprises only final firmware components and utilities which are directly usable by end users.
Added AMI PFAT Component new extraction method
Added AMI PFAT Nested PFAT Component extraction
Added Intel BIOS Guard Block Header detailed info
Added Intel BIOS Guard Block Script decompilation
Applied various code fixes & improvements
ABGE v3.0 utility's extracting behavior has now changed. Please read the new README Description. The optional support for Intel BGSL decompilation is provided by the 3rd party dependency "BIOS Guard Script Tool" by @allowitsme. Thanks to @NikolajSchlej for bringing ABGE's v2.0 problematic extraction behavior to my attention.
