That is a terrible article that leaves out pretty much everything important about the actual exploit and instead has lots of general information that most people who would be in the position to have to patch this on large numbers of machines already know.
Edit: nevermind, it is just a case of those multi-page articles for advertising reasons.
https://www.darkreading.com/endpoint-security/critical-logofail-bugs-secure-boot-bypass-millions-pcs seems better, it at least mentions that the logo files have to be placed on the EFI System partition to be loaded by the vulnerable code.
