- Linux Mint: It use mitigation of intel cpu bug?
- Package to Notify/check for Kernel Vulns?
-
Spectre Meltdown Checker gives summary of 1 red in Debian but 0 red in Fedora 36.
I tried the latest SMC from https://github.com/speed47/spectre-meltdown-checker and all were in green. :-)
-
AutoPWN Suite | I've created a python script you can use to scan your systems for vulnerabilities.
How is this project different spectre-meltdown-checker?

Can a laptop from 2012 be a viable home server?
OpenBSD will disable all but the first thread on any Intel processor by default. I'm assuming that these models are too old to have microcode updates addressing the Spectre exploits (Meltdown, Foreshadow, Fallout, Zombieload, RIDL etc.), and disabling SMT/HT might be the most secure thing to do by default.
This script produces a good assessment of Spectre problems for a wide variety of CPUs. I know that they are difficult to exploit, and the mitigations are disabled by many because of their performance impact.

Intel Finds Bug in AMD's Spectre Mitigation, AMD Issues Fix
You can confirm the status of the mitigations using InSpectre for Windows, or Spectre & Meltdown Checker if you're on a unix based system.

What kernel parameters do you use?
You can run https://github.com/speed47/spectre-meltdown-checker
-
Any opinion about NUC as home server?
He's probably referring to the class of vulnerabilities checked by this script: https://github.com/speed47/spectre-meltdown-checker. It's not just Intel CPUs that were affected, AMD and ARM also have some vulnerabilities (I just ran it on an ARM v7 to see) although maybe not as many.

How can secure the host from the guest using virt manager?
utilise microcode updates (should be by default, check)

[Guide] How to unbrick Gigabyte G5 KC BIOS (step-by-step)
10th gen is locked by "Overclocking lock" And "Cfg lock" in bios, you can disable it thru ifr and use any software to undervolt your cpu (throttlestop on windows, linux has its own software (this, probably)). This is a lot safer than just putting voltages in bios as you can guess.

Help with installing intel undervolt on PopOS?
On Windows machines and laptops with Intel cpus, I almost always use Throttlestop to tweak power consumption and thus temperatures. I'd like to do so on this machine as well. I've found this: https://github.com/kitsunyan/intel-undervolt
- New to Linux, need 101 help in undervolting

Any tips on having my T480 run silent on Ubuntu?
intel-undervolt - though I may not be using this optimally. CPU: -75, GPU: -50, CPU-Cache: -75

Alternative software for undervolting the CPU
You can use intel-undervolt to modify the voltage, TDP.
-
Are there risks to setting a low CPU Multiplier (Laptop)?
I will try your suggestion about limiting power package. I've been using this 3rd party intel-undervolt software, which I'm not sure if it supports granular changes to wattage, but it seems like there is some energy/performance settings there.
-
Throttlestop or others temps reducing methods for Debian
I personally use intel-undervolt and auto-cpufreq.

bios undervolting
You can also undervolt though software on Linux based OS's. For intel there's these: https://github.com/georgewhewell/undervolt (this one looks more popular) https://github.com/kitsunyan/intel-undervolt (this is the one I use, no particular reason)
