  • Support for BIND DNS has been removed from Plesk for Windows due to security and maintenance risks.
    If a Plesk for Windows server is still using BIND, the upgrade to Plesk Obsidian 18.0.70 will be unavailable until the administrator switches the DNS server to Microsoft DNS.

Question Meltdown & Spectre on Ubuntu

Catia

Basic Pleskian
I'm running Plesk 17.0.17 on Ubuntu 16.04.3. My ISP sent out some info on Spectre & Meltdown urging everyone to upgrade their systems... problem is I can't make heads or tails out of the information. I'm about a far from being a Linux guru as one can get!

My question is this. Will the system updates through Plesk apply the required patches, or do I need to upgrade the kernel manually? If so, can somebody point me in the right direction for how to do that? Thanks!
