ZombieLoad: Cross Privilege-Boundary Data Leakage on Intel CPUs
What is the recommended course of action? Stop buying Intel products, and devices which contain them?<p>What about devices with older processors? I'm still running a Sandy Bridge rig and it works fine, except for the side channel vulnerablities. It's probably not going to be patched. I also have a cheaper computer with a Skylake processor, which is newer yet still vulnerable!<p>It's only a matter of time until something really nasty comes along, making all these PCs dangerous to use. What then? Lawsuits?<p>My questions are only partially rhetorical.
