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.
iPadOS is the successor to iOS 12 and is a mobile operating system for iPads.
macOS Catalina is the 16th major release of macOS
macOS Big Sur is the 17th release of macOS.
macOS Monterey is the 18th and current major release of macOS.
Safari is a graphical web browser developed by Apple.
tvOS is an operating system for fourth-generation Apple TV digital media player.
watchOS is the mobile operating system for Apple Watch and is based on the iOS operating system.
Successful exploitation of the most severe of these vulnerabilities could allow for arbitrary code execution in the context of the logged on user. Depending on the privileges associated with the user, an attacker could then install programs; view, change, or delete data; or create new accounts with full user rights. Users whose accounts are configured to have fewer user rights on the system could be less impacted than those who operate with administrative user rights.
