    Meltdown only impacts Intel processors. Meltdown can be thought to be a special case of Spectre that exploits an Intel-specific flaw that makes it simpler to execute the exploit.

    Spectre, which is more of a generalized class of attacks, but more difficult to implement, impacts Intel, AMD, and ARM as per the original spectre paper. https://spectreattack.com/spec..., from which I quote:

    Hardware. We have empirically verified the vulnerability of several Intel processors to Spectre attacks, including Ivy Bridge, Haswell and Skylake based processors. We have also verified the attack’s applicability to AMD Ryzen CPUs. Finally, we have also successfully mounted Spectre attacks on several Samsung and Qualcomm processors (which use an ARM architecture) found in popular mobile phones.

    and

    Unlike Meltdown, the Spectre attack works on non-Intel processors, including AMD and ARM processors. Furthermore, the KAISER patch [19], which has been widely applied as a mitigation to the Meltdown attack, does not protect against Spectre.

  38. Vulnerability comes down to race condition by JoeyRox · · Score: 4, Informative · on Google Says Almost All CPUs Since 1995 Vulnerable To 'Meltdown' And 'Spectre' Flaws (bleepingcomputer.com)
    I read through Google's Meltdown paper (https://meltdownattack.com/meltdown.pdf). While there are several cumulative vulnerabilities that make this exploit possible, the most important of which is kernel address-space discovery via speculative data accesses which leave DCACHE lines in their wake, the root vulnerability of actually being able to read the contents of data comes down to an exception race condition. From the document:

    1 ; rcx = kernel address
    2 ; rbx = probe array
    3 retry:
    4 mov al, byte [rcx]
    5 shl rax, 0xc
    6 jz retry
    7 mov rbx, qword [rbx + rax]

    Listing 2: The core instruction sequence of Meltdown. An inaccessible kernel address is moved to a register, raising an exception. The subsequent instructions are already executed out of order before the exception is raised, leaking the content of the kernel address through the indirect memory access.
    ...
    When the uOPs finish their execution, they retire inorder, and, thus, their results are committed to the architectural state. During the retirement, any interrupts and exception that occurred during the execution of the instruction are handled. Thus, if the MOV instruction that loads the kernel address is retired, the exception is registered
    and the pipeline is flushed to eliminate all results of subsequent instructions which were executed out of order. However, there is a race condition between raising this exception and our attack step 2 which we describe below.

    And why AMD and ARM may not be vulnerable to Meltdown:

    6.4 Limitations on ARM and AMD
    We also tried to reproduce the Meltdown bug on several ARM and AMD CPUs. However, we did not manage to successfully leak kernel memory with the attack described in Section 5, neither on ARM nor on AMD. The reasons for this can be manifold. First of all, our implementation might simply be too slow and a more optimized version might succeed. For instance, a more shallow out-of-order execution pipeline could tip the race condition towards against the data leakage. Similarly, if the processor lacks certain features, e.g., no re-order buffer, our current implementation might not be able tol leak data. However, for both ARM and AMD, the toy example as described in Section 3 works reliably, indicating that out-of-order execution generally occurs and instructions past illegal memory accesses are also performed.
