Description Stanislav Kozina 2018-05-04 12:29:56 UTC 
The updated ucode needs to be delivered for Broadwell EP/EX CPU models to mitigate Spectre vulnerability.
Broadwell EP/EX CPUs need updated microcode update sequence so this is blocker by bz1574967.
Comment 2 Stanislav Kozina 2018-07-09 14:43:53 UTC 
RHEL-5 doesn't support Broadwell EP/EX CPUs so closing this bug.
