Apple has emitted a bundle of security fixes ranging across its product lines.
For the flagship iOS, the 13.4 update includes fixes for 30 security holes.
The iOS kernel also has a potentially serious arbitrary code execution bug and an information disclosure flaw.
Mac users will also get fixes for the above-mentioned kernel and IOHIDFamily flaws, a sign of just how close iOS and macOS have become.
Owners of other Apple gear will also want to check for updates as Apple has posted fixes for watchOS, tvOS, and iTunes for Windows.
