I was under the impression that spectre is is much more limited in scope than Meltdown. I think you have to be in a position to influence the execution of the program you are trying to extract information from. Like JavaScript engines running in browsers. One example is your JS can be used to get the browser to speculatively execute something that leaks data. I think that it’d be pretty hard for one VM to set up a spectre attack on another arbitrary VM. Meltdown however does expose everything.
