It's not really a "dangerous security bug" unless you're running an insecure OS. Personally, I'm looking forward to having my choice of OS take advantage of this "bug" to run the kernel at the highest privilege level, as if it were running on an ancient i80486, where it and I can worry less about the AMD "Secure Technology" junk.
What is a 100% guaranteed secure OS that runs on AMD processors?
Windows doesn’t cut it, neither does Linux or many of the BSD variants. Unless you’re running something like SeL4, I think you’re overestimating the security you currently have.

Is that supposed to be a glimmer of hope or a dire warning?
