Edit: oh wait, it's actually 12 lines, the same as on your system. The reason it reported 11 on the first run is because KPTI has been disabled manually here.
- old-gregg 7y ago:) I grepped for the wrong thing. Here's a better version: $ sudo spectre-meltdown-checker | grep "Not affected" | wc -l On Skylake: 0 On Ryzen : 10 I don't have an Ivy Bridge CPU to test this on, but AMD has suffered from _significantly_ fewer number of vulnerabilities than Intel, not just "one more" as the top commenter suggested.
