Hello folks, welcome to another blog post here on the blog.
I must be feeling better, I have been posting quite a bit more, and I will also be working on the podcast for the Security Box. With that said, I have some news coming out of Komando.com and IOS 15.6 that we must get out. To be fair, I did see a blog post from Applevis that mentioned it, but i didn’t read it till I saw Kim’s posting.
First, let’s cover Update your iPhone now! iOS 15.6 fixes 37 security flaws which comes from komando.com.
This has several CVE designations that are talked about, and they are as follows:
- • CVE-2022-32832: A hacker can take over your phone.
- • CVE-2022-32788: Exposes your phone to remote code execution attacks.
- • CVE-2022-32857: Makes it easier for hackers to track your activity.
- • CVE-2022-32847: A hacker can restrict your Wi-Fi access.
- • CVE-2022-32849: A hacker can access sensitive information in your iCloud Photo Library.
Here is Apple Vis’s coverage of the 15.6 release.
It has information that affects speech, braille and other odds and ends that Komando doesn’t cover. In no way am I saying that article is bad, but it covers other things Applevis doesn’t cover in general. Apple Vis does indicate that there are security fixes.
I would suggest that you read both articles and see what applies to you. Thanks for reading!
