How many "vulnerabilities" to a flaw?
CPU: Intel(R) Core(TM) i7-8565U CPU @ 1.80GHz
Vulnerabilities:
- spectre_v1
- spectre_v2
- spec_store_bypass
- swapgs
- itlb_multihit
- srbds
- mmio_stale_data
- retbleed
- eibrs_pbrsb
- gds
So, and given that I paid 100% of retail price, the questions are:
- How many "vulnerabilities" does it take to mark a CPU as a "flawed" piece of hardware?
- Where do you draw the line?
- Why there?
