Just this morning the major VENOM security vulnerability was made public while a few hours later, a kernel developer has gone public with four 'remote packet of death' vulnerabilities affecting a mainline Linux kernel WLAN driver.

Welcome to the drivers support section where you can download drivers for your specific motherboards. But i really doubt it because am2 uses the older/slower hypertransport 2.0. Among other things the selected motherboards have the socket am3 cpu socket that the amd phenom ii x4 955 will fit into, providing motherboard to cpu compatibility.
Jason Donenfeld has discovered four remote packet-of-death vulnerabilities whereby attackers could send specially crafted packets to a machine using the OZWPAN kernel driver over the network and cause some issues. Donenfeld explained in his public announcement, 'The ozwpan driver accepts network packets, parses them, and converts them into various USB functionality. There are numerous security vulnerabilities in the handling of these packets. Two of them result in a memcpy(kernel_buffer, network_packet, -length), one of them is a divide-by-zero, and one of them is a loop that decrements -1 until it's zero.'Download Ozmo Devices Motherboards Drivers
Jason has published proof-of-concept code for making these packets of death remotely. Besides the four vulnerabilities noted today, he's also mentioned there's other vulnerabilities in this driver that are worth investigating. The patches are now public for addressing the four 'PoD' issues but have yet to be mainlined. Details on these driver vulnerabilities can be found via this kernel mailing list post. OZWPAN is a USB HCD driver that uses WiFi to communicate with wireless peripherals.
This driver is a USB HCD driver that does not have an associated a physical device but instead uses Wi-Fi to communicate with the wireless peripheral. The USB requests are converted into a layer 2 network protocol and transmitted on the network using an ethertype (0x892e) registered to Ozmo Device Inc. This driver is compatible with existing wireless devices that use Ozmo Devices technology.
The devices connect to the host use Wi-Fi Direct so a network card that supports Wi-Fi direct is required. A recent version (0.8.x or later) version of the wpa_supplicant can be used to setup the network interface to create a persistent autonomous group (for older pre-WFD peripherals) or put in a listen state to allow group negotiation to occur for more recent devices that support WFD.
The protocol used over the network does not directly mimic the USB bus transactions as this would be rather busy and inefficient. Instead the chapter 9 requests are converted into a request/response pair of messages.
Targus, the industry leader that introduced the first universal dual-video docking station, has broken ground again, introducing the Thunderbolt 3 DV4K Docking Station with Power (DOCK220USZ). 'We're thrilled to add a new dock to our lineup that's a brand new Thunderbolt 3 dock,' says Andrew Corkill, Vice President of Product Marketing for Targus. 'Unlike any other Thunderbolt 3 dock on the market today, DOCK220USZ works with any platform, including macOS and Windows. It's designed to work in Mac environments like design studios and video agencies as well as in mixed-laptop-inventory environments.'
The DOCK220USZ gives designers, animators, engineers, and more the best of both worlds - speed and 4K-sharp resolution. Outfitted with one USB-C and two USB-A ports to accommodate workspace peripherals like a mouse and keyboard as well as combo audio, the Thunderbolt 3 Docking Station allows you to listen to music or use an integrated mic with ease. The dock delivers 4K views and combines power delivery and ease-of-use in a compact form factor to help creative professionals stay connected, powered, and productive.
