Subject: [cip-dev] MDS and other speculation issues
Date: Wed, 15 May 2019 12:33:30 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <1557920010.3952.2.camel@codethink.co.uk> (raw)
As with the earlier speculation vulnerabilities, I don't believe that
MDS should be a particularly severe issue for CIP-based systems.
Nevertheless, I have prepared a backport of the mitigations for MDS
(and some changes to the mitigations for other speculation issues) for
4.4. This was included in 4.4.180-rc1, which is out for review now. I
did not have the chance to test this thoroughly, so review and testing
are needed.
Ben.
