CPU Side Channel Attack Index Page

Issue

Starting with Spectre & Meltdown attacks that became public starting January 3rd, 2018, there have been a string of subsequent issues (directly and indirectly related) that have captured the public's interest. This article serves as a landing page for readers desiring to quickly have access to the numerous Red Hat artifacts that document our response to these issues.

Detection

For each CPU vulnerability which had a vulnerability response article there was also a detection script released. To simplify downloading and running all of these detection scripts you can use combined CPU vulnerability detection script. This script will download respective scripts and their GPG signatures, check the signatures, and allow user to run all these scripts in a batch. To verify the legitimacy of the script, you can download the detached GPG signature as well.
