My original post is on the Big Sur subforum but I’m wondering if it should have been posted here as it might not just be about Big Sur:

“For a 15” MacBook Pro (Late 2013) running Big Sur 11.6, when I run

“/usr/libexec/firmwarecheckers/eficheck/eficheck --integrity-check”

I get

“Primary allowlist version match not found for version”

When I run

“sudo /usr/libexec/firmwarecheckers/eficheck/eficheck --integrity-check”

I get

“Primary allowlist version match found. No changes detected in primary hashes.”

Does this mean my EFI integrity is intact, but it’s not “allowed”?”

Any help appreciated.
 
I updated to 11.6.1 this morning; running EFI check now results in the following output:

"Primary allowlist version match found. No changes detected in primary hashes."

Seems whatever the cause was has now been fixed. I do wonder if it was a similar issue to that which has affected newer machines upgrading MacOS.
