Forgive yourself the déjà vu.
Apple announced Thursday major security updates for both iOS 15.3.1 and iPadOS 15.3.1. At issue, according to the company, is an exploit which could let a hacker run arbitrary code on users devices (that's bad). What's more, Apple notes that this vulnerability isn't theoretical.
iRobot Roomba Combo i3+ Self-Emptying Robot Vacuum and Mop—$329.99(List Price $599.99)
Samsung Galaxy Tab A9+ 10.9" 64GB Wi-Fi Tablet—$178.99(List Price $219.99)
Apple AirPods Pro 2nd Gen With MagSafe USB-C Charging Case—$199.00(List Price $249.00)
Eero 6 Dual-Band Mesh Wi-Fi 6 System (Router + 2 Extenders)—$149.99(List Price $199.99)
Apple Watch Series 9 (GPS, 41mm, Midnight, S/M, Sports Band)—$299.00(List Price $399.00)
"Processing maliciously crafted web content may lead to arbitrary code execution," writes the company. "Apple is aware of a report that this issue may have been actively exploited."
In other words, Apple is saying that someone out there — hackers, government employees, whoever — may used this exploit prior to this patch.
Thursday's announcement comes shortly on the heels of a Jan. 26 security patch for iOS and macOS, which itself followed a host of December, 2021, security fixes. To be clear, it's a good thing that Apple is actively issuing these patches — even if customers are left wondering why so many are ultimately necessary.
Thursday's update is available for the iPhone 6s and later, all iPad Pro models, the iPad Air 2 (and later), the iPad 5th generation (and later), the iPad mini 4 (and later), and the 7th generation iPod touch.
