Indian Govt Warns iPhone And iPad Users Of High-Level Security Flaw, Urgent Update Needed

News 18  

The Indian Computer Emergency Response Team has issued a ‘high-level’ security warning for iPhone and iPad users in India—stating that several new vulnerabilities in iOS and iPadOS could allow hackers to take control of targeted devices. These are the affected software versions: iOS Versions before 16.5.1. iPadOS versions before 16.5.1. iOS versions before 15.7.7 iPadOS versions before 15.7.7 CERT-In has recommended that all iPhone and iPad users update to the most recent firmware from Apple in order to avoid being hacked or having their sensitive data stolen. It was seen that these ‘vulnerabilities’ or simply put, security loopholes are a part of Apple iOS and iPadOS due to “improper input validation in Kernel” as well as “improper checks or improper state management issues in Webkit.” And, successful exploitation of these vulnerabilities may “allow the attacker to execute arbitrary code on the target system.” How To Solve This Issue? These versions are compatible with iPhone 8 and later, all models of iPad Pro, iPad Air 3rd generation and later, iPad 5th generation and later, and iPad mini 5th generation and later.
