Can't say either way. I would assume that if you can connect, the ME can connect. On the other hand, for most peoples thread scenario a zero-day exploit of the ME is probably not very high on the list. Just like XEN virtualization escapes. Qubes brings you very far in terms of security even when running on top of ME. Important here is proper compartmentalization and having sensitive data in offline qubes only. Beyond that social engineering is probably your biggest worry. But I am getting rapidly off topic.
