Hi All

I have just checked my kernel and it is 4.13.0-32-generic

Is it possible to find out whether I need to upgrade please? I am
aware of the spectre and meltdown issues and wondered how I might find
out:
1. If I should upgrade
2. How I do this manually

https://www.kernel.org/

I visited the above and I can see the latest stable kernel is 4.15.4.
Should I upgrade to this please?

I'd check with your distribution. You may find they have patched it already and you have been updated in a security release.
