Apple on Tuesday released the final version of macOS Sierra 10.12 as a free update and announced that no less than 65 security vulnerabilities were addressed in this operating system version.
Plagued by 16 flaws, the “apache_mod_php” module responsible for interpreting PHP code was the most affected component in the platform. The most significant of these issues could lead to unexpected application termination or arbitrary code execution. Apple resolved these vulnerabilities by updating PHP to version 5.6.24.
