Do you have an article on that handy? I like reading about side channel and timing attacks.

TPM-FAIL from 2019. It affects Intel fTPM and some dedicated TPM chips: link

The latest (at the moment) UEFI vulnerability, UEFIcanhazbufferoverflow is also related to, but not directly caused by, TPM on Intel systems: link

That's insane. How can they be doing security hardware and leave a timing attack in there?

Thank you for those links, really interesting stuff.
