According to http://nvidia.custhelp.com/app/answers/detail/a_id/4611 the NVIDIA driver needs to be updated to 384.111 to fix the Spectre vulnerabilities in the NVIDIA kernel modules (along with the upcoming Kernel security patches).

I think this update should be pushed ASAP to all support Ubuntu releases as a security update.

It seems so far only CVE-2017-5753 (variant 1) has been addresses and a future NVIDIA update will also address CVE-2017-5715 (variant 2)

Please note there is also a updated version 390.12 for the R390 branch in case that is also provided somewhere.
