No Spectre, Meltdown worries for Cisco Meraki products

Cisco Meraki has confirmed that all of its products are not affected by the Spectre and Meltdown vulnerabilities. This means all of Meraki’s hardware devices, back-end infrastructure and Virtual Machines will be safe from Spectre and Meltdown attacks.

This is due to the closed systems running on Meraki’s products that do not allow anyone to run custom code on the device. Therefore, attackers can’t run crafted code on an affected device. Despite this, Cisco Meraki advised customers to secure their virtual environment and ensure that all security updates are installed.
