I bet the NSA is pissed this flaw is now public. I sure they have been using it forever.

Critical flaws revealed to affect most Intel chips since 1995
Most Intel processors and some ARM chips are confirmed to be vulnerable
The researchers who discovered the vulnerabilities, dubbed "Meltdown" and "Spectre," said that "almost every system," since 1995, including computers and phones, is affected by the bug.
Many cloud services running Intel-powered servers are also affected, prompting Amazon, Microsoft, and Google to patch their cloud services and schedule downtime to prevent would-be attackers from reading other processes on the same shared cloud server.
