[Security] Meltdown and Spectre vulnerabilities in ARM

Installing and Using OpenWrt

My bad -- I saw the CONFIG didn't get set but I'm on ARM not x86. No need to default y for ARM yet if the patches aren't in yet I guess.

22

remember that most ARM cores aren't affected, it's only the high-end ones that
have any vulnerability

23

Clients are affected as well...

I could see that being a more likely attack surface...

Was a patch pushed out and in what version. I am trying to check if some hardware I am running was ever patched.

Spectre will require a BIOS update.

26

So LEDE itself doesn't need a patch?
