Apple releases updates fixing security bug exploited to hack iPhones and Macs: Report

Apple, on Monday, released emergency security updates to address a new zero-day vulnerability used in attacks targeting iPhones, iPads, and Macs, a report from Bleepingcomputer shared. The security bug was found to be caused by a WebKit confusion that could be exploited to cause the operating system to crash and execute maliciously crafted codes on the affected devices. In Mac, attackers could use maliciously crafted web content to exploit the bug, Apple shared on its support page. And by restricting information about the security bug, the company might likely want to update their devices before more attackers gain information about the bug.
