Sebelum mengeluarkan update untuk mengatasi Spectre, Apple telah terlebih dahulu mengeluarkan update untuk kerentanan Meltdown di iOS 11.2 dan macOS 10.13.2.
Kini, update untuk mengatasi celah keamanan Spectre, iOS 11.2.2 dan macOS High Sierra 10.13.2 telah dirilis. Keduanya sudah tersedia untuk diunduh dan dipasang ke perangkat yang didukung oleh perangkat lunak tersebut.
Safari juga telah diupdate dengan 11.0.2 di MacOS Sierra 10.12.6 dan OS X El Capitan 10.11.6 untuk tujuan yang sama.

Spectre yaitu sebuah aba-aba yang menyerang keamanan perangkat keras yang memanfaatkan celah prosedur prosesor yang berpotensi memungkinkan peretas menerima jalan masuk ke warta data sensitif pengguna, demikian dilansir dari GSM Arena.
