None
x86 CPUs don't have true "software" boot ROMs in mask ROM (such as those in many ARM SoCs). Most x86 platforms map the firmware in SPI flash directly into address space at the reset vector, where it can be executed in-place. Prior to this, some early initialization may be performed by the ROM microcode, or by coprocessors (such as the ME/PSP) if present.
Firmware Signing
For ME only
ME Gen4 and newer are not vulnerable to CVE-2017-5705
CPU Microcode
Proprietary
All current x86 CPUs use proprietary microcode, stored in mask ROM in the CPU itself. Additional updates to this microcode can be temporarily loaded by firmware and/or the OS.
Management Coprocessor: Firmware
Proprietary, partially disabled (ME Gen4+)
On ME version 12 and above (some Coffee Lake, all post-Coffee-Lake), sometimes called "IFWI ME" or "ME Generation 4" or later, module removal (as was done with earlier MEs) is not currently known to be possible. However, the AltMeDisable ("HAP bit") can still be used on these MEs.
