Apple on Monday released security patches to address a zero-day vulnerability that had been used to jailbreak iPhones running iOS 13.5.
One week later, Apple has released security patches to fix the issue, revealing that the root cause of the bug was memory consumption and that improved memory handling would address it.
Apple says the flaw was patched with the release of iOS 13.5.1 and iPadOS 13.5.1, now rolling out to iPhone 6s and later, iPad Air 2 and later, iPad mini 4 and later, and iPod touch 7th generation.
The company released updates for macOS High Sierra 10.13.6 and macOS Catalina 10.15.5, Apple TV 4K and Apple TV HD, and Apple Watch Series 1 and later to patch the vulnerability.
Pwn20wnd, the team of developers behind unc0ver, confirmed that iOS 13.5.1 patches the vulnerability exploited by their tool, while also warning users that they should refrain from updating if they want to keep their devices jailbroken.
