US Govt and Apple Issue Urgent Patches for iPhone Vulnerabilities
The U.S. Cybersecurity & Infrastructure Security Agency (CISA) has ordered federal agencies to patch three recently discovered zero-day flaws affecting iPhones, Macs, and iPads that have been exploited in attacks. The bugs allow attackers to access sensitive information and execute arbitrary code. Apple has acknowledged that the flaws may have been actively exploited. The affected devices include iPhones 6s and later, iPads, Macs, Apple Watches, and Apple TVs. The bugs were addressed in recent updates, and federal agencies must apply the patches by June 12th, 2023. The flaws were likely exploited in state-sponsored spyware attacks.
