Hello,
I just came across this sad news, it looks like we've got a new CPU situation, the guilty is AMD Zen 2.
Nope! this time disabling SMT will not be enough.
The list of the CPUs where the vulnerability was discovered:
AMD Ryzen 3000 Series Processors
AMD Ryzen PRO 3000 Series Processors
AMD Ryzen Threadripper 3000 Series Processors
AMD Ryzen 4000 Series Processors with Radeon Graphics
AMD Ryzen PRO 4000 Series Processors
AMD Ryzen 5000 Series Processors with Radeon Graphics
AMD Ryzen 7020 Series Processors with Radeon Graphics
AMD EPYC “Rome” Processors
AMD will release a patch to fix the problem ... in December 2023.
I guess I'll be very patient and pray to not be unlucky because I really don't want to try the workaround cpucontrol(8)(), it looks like a bit too risky.
