-# spectre-meltdown-checker
-Spectre &amp; Meltdown vulnerability/mitigation checker for Linux
+Spectre & Meltdown Checker
+==========================
+
+A simple shell script to tell if your Linux installation is vulnerable
+against the 3 "speculative execution" CVEs:
+
+CVE-2017-5753 bounds check bypass (Spectre Variant 1)
+ Impact: Kernel & all software
+ Mitigation: recompile software *and* kernel with a modified compiler that introduces the LFENCE opcode at the proper positions in the resulting code
+ Performance impact of the mitigation: negligible
+
+CVE-2017-5715: branch target injection (Spectre Variant 2)
+ Impact: Kernel
+ Mitigation 1: new opcode via microcode update that should be used by up to date compilers to protect the BTB (by flushing indirect branch predictors)
+ Mitigation 2: introducing "retpoline" into compilers, and recompile software/OS with it
+ Performance impact of the mitigation: high for mitigation 1, medium for mitigation 2, depending on your CPU
+
+CVE-2017-5754: rogue data cache load (Meltdown)
+ Impact: Kernel
+ Mitigation: updated kernel (with PTI/KPTI patches), updating the kernel is enough
+ Performance impact of the mitigation: low to medium
+
+Example of the output of the script:
+
+Spectre and Meltdown mitigation detection tool v0.01
+
+CVE-2017-5753 [bounds check bypass] aka 'Spectre Variant 1'
+* Kernel recompiled with LFENCE opcode insertion: UNKNOWN (check not yet implemented)
+> STATUS: UNKNOWN (not implemented, but real answer is most probably VULNERABLE at this stage)
+
+CVE-2017-5715 [branch target injection] aka 'Spectre Variant 2'
+* Mitigation 1
+* Hardware (CPU microcode) support for mitigation: NO
+* Kernel support for IBRS: NO
+* IBRS enabled for Kernel space: NO
+* IBRS enabled for User space: NO
+* Mitigation 2
+* Kernel recompiled with retpoline: UNKNOWN (check not yet implemented)
+> STATUS: VULNERABLE (IBRS hardware + kernel support OR retpoline-compiled kernel are needed to mitigate the vulnerability)
+
+CVE-2017-5754 [rogue data cache load] aka 'Meltdown' aka 'Variant 3'
+* Kernel supports Page Table Isolation (PTI): YES
+* PTI enabled and active: YES
+> STATUS: NOT VULNERABLE (PTI mitigates the vulnerability)
