Multiple Vulnerabilities in Apple Products Could Allow for Arbitrary Code Execution
Multiple vulnerabilities have been discovered in Apple Products, the most severe of which could allow for arbitrary code execution.
iOS is a mobile operating system for mobile devices, including the iPhone, iPad, and iPod touch.
