Does Meltdown and Spectre affects F5 appliance as it runs Intel processors?

I am started to have queries from customers using F5 on Meltdown and Spectre. Will there be any patches soon?

Though these two exploits have not been seen in the wild, it will be a question of when.

I believe the exploits needed some sort of malware running in order to exploit. Malware authors will most likely target consumer devices over network appliances? Is it harder to run a malware inside a closed and proprietary F5 TMOS?
