What a terrible system. I have a couple of computers where the vendor provides good update support, but for most of them this is not the case and you’re pretty much stuck with the firmware you get. To tie Secure Boot to such a flaky set of distribution channels seems like very poor planning.
Or it’s on purpose to force the purchase of new hardware.
It is always about the money.
How can I check if my system will be affected or not?
Was your bios updated in the last few years? Not when you updated it, but when the manufacturer pushed a newer update.
If it’s older than 2023 then you’re screwed. If it’s been updated since then then you’re probably fine.
