If you plan to run one VM on one physical machine, perhaps you don’t have to worry your neighbor reading your data. But a malicious program running on your machine CAN still exploit the bugs. In fact one can exploit the browrser via Javascript by taking advantage of Spectre. There is no way to avoid the vulnerabilities until you have patchrd your system and your software. The three bugs we know of is not a cloud vs dedicated choice.

- yeukhon 9y agoI was illustrating the point that these bugs are not limited to a cloud vs dedicated server sevicd model. I don’t think OP would risk not patching its dedicated server, then it echoes my point that these bugs are just as dangerous as in dedicated server model too.
- baq 9y agoIf your server does eh scraping, it'd better not have access to your network.
- snaky 9y agoYes, 'active' (JS-running) web scraping is an obvious exception.
