Fixed In Version: ovirt-engine-4.2.3.7 Doc Type: Enhancement
Doc Text:
SSBD type has been added to relevant CPU families (most Intels) for mitigation of CVE-2018-3639 in guests. These new types cover the previous Spectre/Meltdown mitigations and in case of Westmere and SandyBridge CPUs provide additional performace from the IBRS types alone. For maximum security all Clusters configured with IBRS CPU type should be changed to its SSBD variant and running VMs power cycled. Note it requires another microcode update to be applied on host prior to that, so check the SSBD type is reported in Host tab before making any configuration changes
