If you have an iPhone, iPad, or Mac, you should update your device as soon as possible because Apple has released a fix for two Zero Day vulnerabilities that hackers can use to steal your personal information.
That said, both
questions are about the WebKit "engine" used by Safari on all
platforms. iOS, iPadOS and macOS are at risk, meaning there is a potentially
wide range of devices that could be attacked.
One problem is
“the processing of Internet content where sensitive information may be exposed.
Another problem is that there is a risk of a hacker injecting malicious code
because there is a memory error.
The fixes are
available in iOS 17.1.2, iPadOS 17.1.2, and macOS 14.1.2, as well as Safari
17.1.2 for macOS Monterey and macOS Ventura operating systems.
To download the
update if you have an iPhone, go to: Settings->General->Software Update,
and it should say iOS 17.1.2 available.
Apple says the following models are affected:
- iPhone XS and later models
- iPad Pro 12.9-inch 2nd generation and later, iPad Pro 10.5-inch, iPad Pro 11-inch 1st generation and later, iPad Air 3rd generation and later, iPad 6th generation and later, as and iPad mini 5th generation and later.
- macOS Monterey, macOS Ventura, and macOS Sonoma
