    This applies to apple or pc of any variety with an intel cpu that is on the internet

    Windows xp and up

    Affects linux as well

    Not sure how far back apple will update

    Don’t argue just do it

    You have been warned
    What happens if we don't upgrade?

    You are most likely vulnerable just by having your computer on and connected to the internet, you need to be doing nothing special to be caught up in this.

    A remote code execution vulnerability exists in Remote Desktop Services – formerly known as Terminal Services – when an unauthenticated attacker connects to the target system using RDP and sends specially crafted requests. This vulnerability is pre-authentication and requires no user interaction. An attacker who successfully exploited this vulnerability could execute arbitrary code on the target system. An attacker could then install programs; view, change, or delete data; or create new accounts with full user rights.

    This is now talking about RDP and Windows Terminal Services. Quiet different to side channel attacks and speculative execution attacks. The original post was about an Intel vulnerability which applied to all operating systems. And hence why the second poster asked if it was about zombieload, being the latest exploit of that nature.
