Both are a very slim chance of being effected. It is not some skit flaw.

It takes a lot of damn luck and skill.

Both had been known for years under googles bounty project.

If you want more information while listening to a podcast watch Linus Tech Tips WAN show about it.

So if you are truly worried about getting effected.

Get your Motorola Razors and P3s out of storage and put lubuntu on that old IDE HDD
