They've finally published one, at
https://newsroom.intel.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/11/2018/01/microcode-update-guidance.pdf

For shits and giggles, you can compare it with the one at
https://kb.vmware.com/s/article/52345

Intel's seems to be a bit rushed. For example for Broadwell-EX 406F1
they say "0x25, 0x23" are bad, but VMware's list says 0x0B000025 and I
have a CPU with 0x0B0000xx. So I've "corrected" their numbers in
attempt at a blacklist patch accordingly, and likewise for some Skylake
SKUs. But there are others in Intel's list that I can't easily
proofread for them right now. Am I missing something?
