Spectre and Meltdown security vulnerabilities
|
Oracle has released patches related to the Spectre (CVE-2017-5753, CVE-2017-5715) and Meltdown (CVE-2017-5754) security vulnerabilities.
Oracle strongly recommends that you apply these patches to existing Oracle Database Cloud Service database deployments created using release 18.1.2 or earlier. See Steps required to patch Spectre and Meltdown security vulnerabilities on existing instances in Known Issues for Oracle Database Cloud Service.
Database deployments created using release 18.1.4 or later already contain the patches.

Which of these three patches you apply depends on the database type and Oracle Database version on your deployment.
