I just saw this, via the site www.maccentral.com:

IN actuality, it comes from here:

I do not use Safari (although I have version 11.0.2), and I have both kept up to date with my 3 browsers (Google Chrome, FireFox, and Opera), along with "Furthermore, the Chrome web browser itself was updated to include an opt-in experimental feature called “site isolation” that can help guard against Spectre attacks". Finally, I am using OS 10.13.2.

So far I have not seen any Intel firmware updates. Here is what it says about those:

"Intel is also publishing firmware updates for its processors. You’ll need to snag them from your PC, laptop, or motherboard maker (like HP or Gigabyte) rather than Intel itself."

So I wonder fi we have to wait for Apple to release these.
