+ <p>About the <a href="https://meltdownattack.com/">Meltdown</a>
+ and <a href="https://spectreattack.com/">Spectre</a> attacks:
+ FreeBSD was made aware of the problems in late December 2017.
+ We're working with CPU vendors and the published papers on
+ these attacks to mitigate them on FreeBSD. Due to the
+ fundamental nature of the attacks, no estimate is yet
+ available for the publication date of patches.</p>
