Apple Admits A Major Security Risk For Iphones Ipads And Imacs

The tech company acknowledged the issue in new security reports and admitted it was “aware of a report that this issue may have been actively exploited.” Security experts say users should update all affected Apple devices, according to the Associated Press. These include iPhones6S and newer models. many iPad models, including 5th generation and later, all iPad Pro models and iPad Air 2. and Mac computers with MacOS Monterey. The problem also affects some iPod models. The company’s explanation of the issue means that a hacker could gain “full administrative access to the device” and “execute any code as if you were the user,” Rachel Tobac, CEO of SocialProof Security, told the AP. Apple, which did not disclose additional details about the attacks or who may have carried them out, says its latest update provides “important security updates and is recommended for all users.” The company’s iOS 15.6.1 update comes a few weeks after the release of iOS 15.6. The bugs were reported by anonymous researchers, according to bleepingcomputer.com. “Apple iOS 15.6.1 is a major update,” independent security researcher Sean Wright told Forbes, as he said the vulnerabilities Apple highlighted “could be linked together to allow attackers to remotely gain full access to victims’ devices.” To update to iOS 15.6.1, go to the “general” tab in settings followed by “software updates”.
