Security News > 2020 > September > Apple Patches Four Vulnerabilities in macOS

Apple on Thursday informed customers that it patched a total of four vulnerabilities across macOS Catalina, High Sierra and Mojave.

Apple says exploitation of the flaw, which involves the processing of a malicious USD file, could lead to arbitrary code execution or a DoS condition.

This vulnerability, reported to Apple by a Cisco Talos researcher, affects all versions of macOS and it was also patched earlier this month in iOS and iPadOS with the release of version 14.

Another vulnerability that impacts all versions of macOS and which Apple also patched in iOS 14 and iPadOS 14 earlier this month is CVE-2020-9968, a sandbox issue that can be exploited by a malicious application to access restricted files.

Apple also released updates for iOS 14, watchOS 7 and tvOS 14 this week, but says they don't address any vulnerabilities.
