At least one of the kids appears to be much worse than spectre.

"an attacker could launch exploit code in a virtual machine (VM) and
attack the host system from there – the server of a cloud hoster, for
example. Alternatively, it could attack the VMs of other customers running
on the same server."

"Intel's Software Guard Extensions (SGX), which are designed to protect
sensitive data on cloud servers, are also not Spectre-safe."
