Security News > 2023 > March > Apple patches everything, including a zero-day fix for iOS 15 users
Apple's latest update blast is out, including an extensive range of security patches for all devices that Apple offcially supports.
There are fixes for iOS, iPadOS, tvOS and watchOS, along with patches for all three supported flavours of macOS, and even a special update to the firmware in Apple's super-cool external Studio Display monitor.
So: if you can only patch your display in a few days' or weeks' time; because you have to plug your patched Mac into your vulnerable display to update it; and assuming that you need go online to complete the update.
This vulnerablity, which allows attackers to implant malware on your iOS 15 or iPadOS 15 device without you noticing, is listed with the dread words, "Apple is aware of a report that this issue may have been actively exploited."
On iDevices, go to Settings > General > Software Update to check if you're up-to-date, and to trigger an update if you aren't.
On Macs, it's almost the same, except that you open the Apple menu and choose System Settings to get started, followed by General > Software Update.
