Apple has released crucial software updates to address two zero-day security vulnerabilities that could potentially compromise iOS users. Both vulnerabilities were actively exploited in sophisticated attacks, particularly targeting individual users. One vulnerability, relating to CoreAudio, enables execution of malicious codes through manipulated audio streams, while the other bypasses pointer authentication, increasing software security risks. The discovery of one bug involved Google's Threat Analysis Group, suggesting possible ties to state-sponsored cyberattacks. The updates include versions for macOS and iOS to safeguard against these potential threats.
Apple's recent software updates address two serious security vulnerabilities, potentially exploited in advanced targeting of iOS users, raising concerns over state-sponsored cyberattacks.
The zero-day vulnerabilities were unknown to Apple during exploitation, with one bug affecting CoreAudio and another allowing bypass of pointer authentication.
