Briefly: my PCSpecialist Intel i5 laptop processor is vulnerable, according to Intel's ME assessment tool (for Linux)

How do I update that?

I already have the package that PCSpecialist sent to me.
The package consists of a binary file ('the firmware') and a program -by Intel- 'FWUpdLcl64.exe', to upload the binary file.
This program is for Windows (64bit), but I'm running Linux. I thus asked PCSpecialist to send me the DOS version of that program (I couldn't find anywhere any reference to a Linux program) and they just replied me that... Intel doesn't provide any DOS version of that program.

So I'm curious about how Linux users can patch their Intel ME without resorting to install Windows on their computers.

Any idea?

Thanks in advance...
