Security News > 2020 > November > Apple Patches Bugs Tied to Previously Identified Zero-Days
Apple has patched three previously identified zero-day vulnerabilities in its iPhone, iPod and iPad devices potentially related to a spate of related flaws recently discovered by the Google Project Zero team that also affect Google Chrome and Windows.
Apple have fixed three issues reported by Project Zero that were being actively exploited in the wild.
The Apple update comes on the heels of updates by Google in the last two weeks to patch a number of zero days in Google Chrome for both the desktop and Android versions of the browser.
Google Project Zero researchers especially have been adept at finding flaws in Apple products, research that sometimes is refuted by the company.
The two tech giants famously butted heads last year over two zero-day bugs in the iPhone iOS after Google Project Zero researchers claimed that they had been exploited for years.
