Meltdown and Spectre Vulnerabilities
This page is under construction. |
Purpose of this page
To provide useful links and other information concerning the Meltdown and Spectre vulnerabilities.
What are they?
These are vulnerabilities in the design of the chip hardware, and cannot be fully resolved by patching operating systems. However patches are available which mitigate these problems.
Meltdown affects most Intel chips, and has CVE-2017-5754
Spectre affects a wide range of chips, CVE-2017-5753 and CVE-2017-5715.
These are described in the register at http://www.theregister.co.uk/2018/01/04/intel_amd_arm_cpu_vulnerability/
