The Chinese Cyber Security Association has issued a warning to inspect the products of Intel for security vulnerabilities, citing the importance of safety for users in the country. It should be noted that the association is not a government entity, so this warning does not carry legal implications for actual product inspections by Intel. However, it could signal to the Cyberspace Administration of China (CAC) to issue future warnings.
Last year, CAC inspected Micron for security and subsequently led to a ban on their products.

TLDR: The Chinese Cyber Security Association warns to check Intel products for security flaws, potentially prompting future action from the Cyberspace Administration of China.
