"Zenbleed" bug affects all Zen 2-based Ryzen, Threadripper, and EPYC CPUs.

The bug allows attackers to swipe data from a CPU’s registers. […] the exploit doesn’t require physical hardware access and can be triggered by loading JavaScript on a malicious website.

This kind of shit is exactly why I use uMatrix as well as uBlock Origin. It allows me to monitor and control 3rd party scripts and allow only what’s needed for a website. If a malicious 3rd party script does happen to get injected into things; I usually notice…especially if it actually breaks shit on the website by not loading it.
