Why the hell doesn’t the X13SAE have BIOS update from the BMC like every other server board?

I can confirm that EDAC support is now working in Linux 6.17:

openSUSE Leap 15.6 with upstream kernel:

It seems, with one of the last Linux Intel microcode (20251111) packages, a new version of Raptor Lake microcode was published:

Code:
247/001: sig 0x000b0671, pf_mask 0x32, 2025-10-08, rev 0x0132, size 219136
However, so far I found nothing related to this version 0x132. Is this another (hidden?) fix for the previous problems or a fix addressing security issues?

Additionally, Supermicro offers a new BIOS version for X13SAE / X13SAE-F. Unfortunately, they again stopped publishing which microcode is included. From the dates of publishing, 0x132 is not possible (released 2025-10-08 while the new BIOS is from 2025-09-16).

0x130 - another unknown version :)

Where did you found that? Or - which tool was used to derive this?
