Windows 10: KB4090007 Intel microcode Cumulative Update for Windows 10 v1709

thx for the answer @fdegrove. Looks like we'll have to keep our eyes open for any future update regarding the uCode and see how MS will push 'em. It'll get kinda tricky to match the right KB update to the according CPU *Biggrin

 

Hi,

You're welcome.

 

Installed quickly on my laptop, now inspectre says I'm fully protected.

 

I’m still unclear, do I still need to worry about updating the BIOS now this is installed and protecting if and when ASUS makes a new one available ?

 

Hi,

You should now be fully protected.
Run GRC's Inspectre to verify if you like.

Cheers, *Wink

 

Hi,
For meltdown I believe so the update deals with the other.

 

Hi,

The listed Skylake cpu's should now be protected for both Meltdown and Spectre vulnerabilities. Even without UEIF/BIOS update.

Cheers, *Wink

 

Hi,
Did mine yesterday meltdown is still vulnerable according to GRC after windows update haswell-e anyway
Skylake-x I've yet to do anything with it there is a new bios but I'm in no hurry to use it.
