Bad news is that now more than 200 different forms of malware have turned up in the "wild" modified to attempt to exploit the Spectre vulnerability, which indicates the probability that some sophisticated sleeper applications may evolve to pose a huge threat to Microsoft Windows.

Good news is that this week I will be posting several different alternative ways to monitor for the vulnerabilities besides the already available spectre-meltdown-checker. Debian has now backported the spectre-meltdown-checker for stretch.
