Due to the wide range of involved CPU, Intel, ARM, AMD and other CPU products have been affected, including personal mobile phones, computers, servers and cloud computing are affected, manufacturers have to update the patch, take preventive measures.
The best way for any individual user, regardless of any vulnerability, is to develop good security awareness and operating habits and to install a system security update in time, but many users do not know if there is any flaw in their own computer processor or how to update , Patch is even more confused, it is inevitable exposure to risk.
To this end, Kingsoft recently launched 'CPU Vulnerability Immuno Tools', a key tool to detect whether there is a CPU CPU vulnerabilities, and for the existence of CPU vulnerabilities affect the system to install security updates to immune CPU vulnerabilities.
It is understood that due to the wide range of vulnerabilities, disclosure of loopholes in the details of the relevant security agencies too fast, making the patch repair plans to rush to launch the relevant parties, the patch release compatibility issues are relatively serious (part of the system will cause a blue screen after installation).
Fortunately, these two CPU vulnerabilities, although the impact is serious, but the attacker needs to execute the attack code on the target computer to attack successfully, the possibility of remote use of the vulnerability is very small, thus reducing the security risk.
Internet users have good safety awareness and operating habits, real-time protection of the security software on the terminal computer, can effectively reduce the risk of exploit.
Kingsoft Internet Security experts pointed out that the so-discovered CPU vulnerabilities affect almost all generations of CPU, complete repair complex high, completely fix these vulnerabilities need CPU manufacturers, motherboard manufacturers, operating system vendors, virtualization software vendors work together In order to completely solve the problem.Because computer hardware replacement very fast, if it is a few years ago released hardware products, motherboard manufacturers will not even update the BIOS system.
The Duba security lab verification, Microsoft's rush to launch the patch may be compatible with some computer systems, some systems will be blue screen, the system can not be started normally.
Duba said that users push the CPU vulnerability immune tools at the same time, will pay close attention to patch updates, timely and more stable version available to users.
