Hi All,

 

 

Good Day. In relation to the recent  security vulnerabilities (Meltdown and  Spectre) found in modern CPUs, we would like to know if Cisco Products are affected? If yes, what are the models/version affected? Is there any security patch that is now available? 

 

I hope to hear from you so soon. Our clients keep on asking regarding on this.

 

Thank you very much

All affected (and not affected) Cisco appliances can be found HERE.

Kindly read this:  Root Cause of Reboot Issue Identified; Updated Guidance for Customers and Partners

Take note of this:  

We recommend that OEMs, cloud service providers, system manufacturers, software vendors and end users stop deployment of current versions, as they may introduce higher than expected reboots and other unpredictable system behavior.

Intel is telling everyone (from manufacturers all the way down to "tin makers") to stop rolling out Intel-recommended fixes because it is borking the appliances.  This is why Cisco's fixes have been pulled.
