Hi,
If I do <$ code>cat /proc/cpuinfo
One of the lines I get is bugs : cpu_meltdown spectre_v1 spectre_v2 spec_store_bypass l1tf
What does that exactly mean?
Should I worry about it?
Can I do something about it?
Cheers!

It's the kernel reporting it detected that. It doesn't mean it's fixed or not fixed; only detected.
Should I worry about it?
No.
Can I do something about it?
