I could easily imagine such a refactor of Safari taking more than 90 days even if Apple made it the highest possible priority.

  The bug is open since 2018, so clearly they don’t actually care about that. https://bugs.webkit.org/show_bug.cgi?id=184466 https://bugs.webkit.org/show_bug.cgi?id=184466

    Right, but that was before they knew about this exploit. My point was that even if they decided they needed to urgently switch to a multiprocesses architecture because it's the only way to mitigate this exploit, they might not be done yet.

      This class of attacks is not new. Spectre demonstrated this possibility in 2018, and Apple was previously targeted by speculation attacks, e.g. https://gofetch.fail/ https://gofetch.fail/ or https://ileakage.com/ https://ileakage.com/.
