Until a firmware update and reboot can be applied, the attack vector can be reduced by limiting read access to the sysfs attributes that export this functionality to userspace.  

The command:
~~~
sudo chmod 400 /sys/class/powercap/intel_rapl/*/energy_uj
~~~
Will do this for the current boot, it will need to be scripted to run at each boot to remain persistent across reboots.
