Apple has also fixed a number of security vulnerabilities in the iOS / iPadOS 16.3 update

CTOnews.com, January 24, iOS / iPadOS 16.3 update was released today, which not only launched iCloud advanced data protection and Apple ID security keys, but also fixed a number of security vulnerabilities in previous versions.

The full update log can be accessed: https://support.apple.com/zh-cn/HT213606

CTOnews.com queried Apple's official update log and found that this update fixes vulnerabilities in AppleMobileFileIntegrity, ImageIO, Kernel, Mail, Maps, Safari and WebKit. For example, a vulnerability in Weather applications allows other applications to bypass Privacy settings.

Another vulnerability lies in WebKit, the engine of Safari browsers, which fixes a vulnerability that could lead to the execution of arbitrary malware.

Mac users who have upgraded to macOS Ventura 13.2, Apple TV users using tvOS 16.3, and Apple Watch users using watchOS 9.3 do not have to worry about these security vulnerabilities.

It is worth noting that Apple has also released iOS 15.7.3, macOS Monterey 12.6.3 and macOS Big Sur 11.7.3 to provide the same patch for users who have not (or cannot) update their devices to the latest version.
