Depends on the browser. Chrome has mitigations, but not solutions to this, which largely consist of degrading the quality of the timer required to pull off Spectre. WebWorkers give you a more accurate timing method that can pull it off. Basically, any website can now theoretically read your encryption key in RAM and something like noscript will be required, not optional for maximum safety.
