iPhone devices are at risk, Apple has issued an important warning

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

Wood energy

Wood is considered humankind’s very first source of energy. Today it is still the most important single source of renewable energy providing about 6 percent of the global total primary energy supply. More than two billion people depend on wood energy for cooking and/or heating, particularly in households in developing countries. It represents the only domestically available and affordable source of energy. Private households’ cooking and heating with woodfuels represents one third of the global renewable energy consumption, making wood the most decentralized energy in the world. Woodfuels arise from multiple sources including forests, other wooded land and trees outside forests, co-products from wood processing, post-consumer recovered wood and processed wood-based fuels. Wood energy is also an important emergency backup fuel. Societies at any socio-economic level will switch easily back to wood energy when encountering economic difficulties, natura...

Tax benefits. Decreased consumption of power and a desperate search for gas substitutes.

The invasion of Ukraine by Russia in February of this year made supply problems worse and drove up the price of imported natural gas. Governments in Europe have experimented with a wide range of policies to protect citizens from the harshest effects of rising prices while maintaining their economy. However, the growing number of street protests and worker strikes in numerous cities demonstrates how intense and real the suffering is for millions of people. The best at controlling inflation are France and Spain, while Germany, Italy, and Greece are setting the bar for long-term plans to guarantee their energy needs. And the UK is having difficulties. A variable risk Nearly half of Europe's total natural gas imports in 2021 came from Russia, but some nations were always going to b...
