CLOSED: Fedora 25 and Meltdown / Spectre

Postby ceayuso » Thu Jan 18, 2018 10:30 am

I see that the Fedora 26 and 27 kernels have been updated for Meltdown and fixes for Spectre are in work. Will the Fedora 25 kernel be updated for these threats?

That is a question you need to ask Fedora. We don't maintain the OS, only the #Amahi packages.

I remembered I have an AMD board after I wrote the question so I'm probably not affected anyway.
