Apple Patches Over 70 Vulnerabilities Across iOS, macOS, Other Products

Apple on Monday announced fresh security updates for both iOS and macOS users, addressing over 70 CVEs across its platforms, including several bugs leading to protected file system modifications.

iOS 18.1 and iPadOS 18.1 are now rolling out to mobile users with patches for 28 vulnerabilities that could lead to information leaks, the disclosure of process memory, denial-of-service, sandbox escape, modification of protected system files, heap corruption, and access to restricted files.

The tech giant points to similar outcomes and resolutions for 59 security defects that were resolved with the macOS Sequoia 15.1 update that started rolling out on Monday. The patches address 15 issues that were also addressed in iOS and several flaws in third-party dependencies.

Additionally, Apple released macOS Sonoma 14.7.1 and macOS Ventura 13.7.1 with fixes for over 40 defects each, and announced the rollout of watchOS, tvOS, and visionOS security updates as well.
