The cause of the issue? The Intel SPI driver.
This innocuous sounding low-level level kernel feature gives Linux the ability to upgrade BIOS firmware on a motherboard directly.
In the upstream Linux kernel the Intel SPI driver is disabled as it’s not yet considered ready for use. The driver’s documentation even warns that it shouldn’t be enabled “unless you know what you are doing” at it can overwrite SPI flash which “may render the system unbootable”.
Canonical, for reasons unknown, chose to enable the SPI driver in the kernel used by the Artful Aardvark.
Worse still, it turns out users didn’t need to install Ubuntu to be affected as the bug can be triggered just by booting a live image.
