The new intel vulnerability
It allows normal user programs – from database applications to JavaScript in web browsers – to discern to some extent the layout or contents of protected kernel memory areas.http://ift.tt/2lEEKleSo, does this mean that by visiting a website, the javanoscript can access information from the kernel of my PC?

www.itwissen.info infects your computer with a JavaScript cryptocurrency miner
I tested it with Google Chrome, Firefox and Internet Explorer. Everytime I opened the website, my Symantec Endpoint Protection encountered a JavaScript cryptocurrency miner in my cache (Image).http://ift.tt/2CkANbq Do not hesitate to test it yourself in a secure environment.This is illegal and definitely not in the interest of the customer/visitor.Your opinions?

Intel's KPMI vulnerability and virtual machines
From what is known about this vulnerability, does this only apply to hardware-based systems (like hypervisors and bare metal) or is it likely to be emulated through to the guests and require those be patched as well??Edit: I meant KPTI, obviously, but I can't edit the noscript :(
