The links to the source code leak for the Intel UEFI BIOS of Alder Lake CPUs was recently posted by a Twitter user named 'freak'.

The leak contained 5.97 GB of files, source code, private keys, change logs, and compilation tools, with the latest timestamp on the files being 9/30/22, likely to be the time when a hacker or insider copied the data.

However it is still not confirmed that the source code was stolen during a cyberattack or leaked by an insider.
