Fix for critical Safari bug out now: iPhone, iPad and Mac users should update immediately
Apple has rolled out new versions of its iOS, iPadOS and macOS operating system, patching up a major security flaw in Safari across all of its devices.
This bug leaked users’ Google data and browsing history that’s stored within the browser, so if you’re an Apple user, we recommend you update the operating system on your devices immediately.
The updates include iOS 15.3, iPadOS 15.3 and macOS Monterey 12.2, and while they don’t add any new features other than “bug fixes and security updates”, they’re still “recommended for all users”.
Apple has also released updates for Big Sur and Catalina (v11.6.3 and Catalina Security Update 2022-001 respectively) for anyone still on the older versions of macOS.
All patched up
Those aren’t the only software updates released by Apple – watchOS 8.4, tvOS 15.3, and HomePod Software 15.3 have also been rolled out publicly.
The updated watchOS also fixes some bugs, particularly the issue that prevented some Apple Watch 7 users from properly charging their devices when using specific chargers.
Meanwhile, the latest HomePod update adds “performance and stability improvements” and Siri voice recognition for up to six users. It’s worth noting that this particular update is region specific and applies to users speaking in English in India and in Italian.
As for the newly updated tvOS, Apple hasn’t shared any details on what the latest version brings, but we can assume it’s another round of performance improvements.
