Microsoft patched this vulnerability on July 9, a full fucking month ago. While most Linux distributions only got a hold of the patches today. It is well-known that attackers monitor Windows Updates and can deduce security vulnerabilites from patches, so they can then go attack unpatched Windows systems and other OSes.
This tells you everything you need to know about how much Microsoft "loves Linux", and how much Intel cares about security.
