My understanding of this vulnerability is that speculative indirect

Not just Linux, but all other OS:es, Microsoft and Apple been patching
in secret as they have a closed source approach, but ms-windows needs at
least one more patch before it can breath out, which will be released on
Tuesday.
It's unclear to me whether AMD CPUs are affected by theses design flaws.
Furthermore, I'd like to know if Python can mitigate hardware-specific
timing attacks.
