It is a serious issue.

Google's security blog on the issue is a great way to catch up if you don't have any idea what I'm talking about.

https://security.googleblog.com/2018/01/todays-cpu-vulnerability-what-you-need.html

 

Actually this is prob easier to read: https://meltdownattack.com/ but they are both worth reading.

 

So as someone who knows fuckall about computers, what should I be doing to protect myself?

 

Oh the update is out

@ChrisTurk If you could yell at people in the banner to update their computers that might be a good idea

KB4056892 for Windows 10 1709 and Windows Server 2016 1709 is the actual update. I'm not sure what the name is for 7/8 ... might be the same? Just run windows update lol

https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/help/4056892/windows-10-update-kb4056892
and the standalone installer: http://www.catalog.update.microsoft.com/Search.aspx?q=KB4056892

https://meltdownattack.com/

update your shit yo

rip windows XP / Vista? users

This affects every intel CPU made in the last decade. AMD isn't affected by the main bug but there is an edgecase from a similar one.

tl;dr update your shit yo

 

Run windows update.

If you are running something older than 7 get fucked. (vista might get updates still I can't remember)
