Security patches exist for Linux, Windows and OSX but the fix can potentially slow down a PCs performance by 30%. In a statement Arm said the majority of it's processors are not affected by Spectre or Meltdown but admitted it has been working with Intel, AMD and other partners to develop defences against the vulnerabilites.> Researchers have verified Spectre "breaks down the isolation between different applications" and will affect Intel, AMD and Arm. It is reported that "this will haunt us for some time.". This is a basic hardware flaw in many CPU designs. As long as you keep updated it will keep the exploit vulnerability at bay but it will not eliminate the vulnerability as more methods are devised to crack it. Does anybody have any info or guesses as to what the Meltdown and Spectre microprocessor flaws mean to Ubuntu users?īasically it means "patch-city".
