Spectre, the CPU cyber security bug is back, only now there are 8 of them (intel says only 4 are really bad, the rest are just bad.)
So look for OS patches to mitigate the bug in the next week or so and bios patches to fix the problem (do they really) in August.
In the mean time patch everything and be areful.
Talking of being careful, Twitter apparently through a slippup, more like falling down a set of stairs compared to slipping, had all of their users usernames and passwords stored in a single (large) unencrypted text file. See the hackernews storey here https://thehackernews.com/2018/05/twitter-account-password.html
Be careful out there.
