The Specter vulnerabilities and meltdown επηρεάζουν, όπως ίσως γνωρίζετε και συστήματα Linux. Οι ομάδες ανάπτυξης των διανομών φέρεται να ετοιμάζουν ενημερωμένους πυρήνες, ενώ όλοι θα πρέπει να ενημερώσουν και τα programs tours they use.
Παρακάτω θα βρείτε ένα script που μπορεί να ελέγξει αν η διανομή Linux που χρησιμοποιείτε είναι ευάλωτη στις ευπάθειες Spectre 1 και 2 ή σε επιθέσεις Meltdown.
You can find the script on its official page project on GitHub. But let's see how you can run it without parameters to control the current kernel.
Of course you can also run it with various options to control a kernel that you are not using.
Open the Terminal in the distribution you want to control.
Once opened it is in the user / home
Type the following command to download the script:
wget https://raw.githubusercontent.com/speed47/spectre-meltdown-checker/master/spectre-meltdown-checker.sh
When it comes down give the following command to run it on your computer:
sudo sh spectre-meltdown-checker.sh
Enter the password access και περιμένετε να δείτε τα Results.
The script checks each variant individually and displays the results. If it displays "STATUS: VULNERABLE" the system is vulnerable and needs a Kernel upgrade. So it would be good to monitor and install the updates issued by your distribution immediately.
