If you’re using an Intel CPU, it’s quite likely. Intel’s higher-end server CPUs don’t appear to be vulnerable, and some of the very latest Intel CPUs aren’t vulnerable to MDS/TAA. You can find a list of the Intel CPUs we tested in Table 2 above.
We recommend installing Intel’s latest microcode, which includes the mitigation against SRBDS for RNG output and SGX keys. This is usually distributed through the standard software update mechanism.
Strictly speaking, in CVE parlance, yes. At the same time, the underlying issue stems from the original RIDL (aka MDS) class of vulnerabilities, except the source of leakage is now a previously undocumented (staging) buffer. Since the buffer is shared across CPU cores, the vulnerability enables cross-core transient execution attacks for the first time.
Yes. Our cross-core attack does not rely on SMT. In fact, as you can see in Table 2, our attack works on an Intel Xeon E3-1220V6 (Kaby Lake) CPU which does not support SMT at all.
In theory, yes. The underlying vulnerability enables cross-core leaks of some data – like RNG output – between arbitrary applications. However, Intel SGX enclaves are more amenable to practical exploitation, since attackers can easily slow down the execution of the victim and control the leakage. We expect practical exploitation beyond Intel SGX enclaves to be more difficult but not impossible.

We do not take long embargoes lightly, as we believe a short (ideally 90-day) vulnerability disclosure period is a good balance between giving vendors sufficient time to mitigate a vulnerability and informing the public early. Our original report (Sep 2018) only described same-core (CPUID) leaks and we did not discuss this PoC further with Intel until July 2019, when we reported that we had reproduced cross-core leaks for a number of instructions including RDRAND. Up to that point, we had not investigated thoroughly the implications of the attack (and, apparently, neither had Intel). We recognize the complexity of fixing bugs like this one, but as we made clear in the past , Intel should have fixed the MDS vulnerability – and dealt with our reported PoCs – properly from the outset, rather than play whac-a-mole with its symptoms.
