Apple on Monday patched a code execution vulnerability in iOS that could be exploited via a JPEG file crafted to take advantage of the flaw. Apple also issued its first round of patches for macOS Sierra as part of a large update that also included fixes for vulnerabilities found in Safari, Apple Watch and Apple TV on Monday.
Sierra and iOS 10.1 received the lion’s share of the updates with a dozen fixes for both Apple products. In typical fashion, Apple is keeping tight-lipped about many of the most serious flaws regarding arbitrary code execution and vulnerabilities that leaked personal data. Neither is it known if any of the vulnerabilities have been exploited publicly.
