New Delhi: Apple has recently rolled out a crucial security update for iPhone, iPad, and Mac devices. The update, identified as iOS 16.5.1, iPadOS 16.5.1, and macOS Monterey 13.4.1, addresses multiple security vulnerabilities that could potentially jeopardize the security and privacy of users.

Among the vulnerabilities addressed in this update is a zero-day exploit, a term used to describe a vulnerability that is unknown to the software developer and lacks an available patch. This particular exploit, if left unaddressed, could allow malicious actors to gain unauthorized control over affected devices, posing a significant risk to user data and device functionality.

Furthermore, the update also resolves a critical WebKit vulnerability. WebKit is the underlying web engine that powers Apple's Safari browser. This vulnerability, if exploited, enables attackers to inject malicious code into websites, potentially leading to unauthorized access or the dissemination of harmful content.
