The F27-20180112 respin live installation images are now available, including the Linux 4.14.13-300 kernel with patches against the Meltdown and Spectre security vulnerabilities, as well as all the latest software updates and security fixes. Incorporating Meltdown/Spectre patches means that you can use these new live ISOs to deploy the Fedora 27 Linux operating system on new computers without going to all the trouble of patching the machine against these severe vulnerabilities that affect us all.
