iOS 18.7.2 and iPadOS 18.7.2 Are Out With Security Fixes

Apple has released iOS 18.7.2 and iPadOS 18.7.2, bringing important security fixes for users who have not yet installed the previous updates for these operating systems.

These new updates address multiple security vulnerabilities, including issues within the App Store, Find My app, and Apple Intelligence that could potentially allow apps to fingerprint users without their consent. Additionally, Apple has resolved several Safari and WebKit-related flaws where processing maliciously crafted web content might cause unexpected process crashes.

Another critical vulnerability has been patched, which previously allowed web apps to monitor keystrokes without user permission — a significant privacy concern.

For a complete list of security improvements included in these updates, you can visit Apple’s official support page. Installing these updates as soon as possible is highly recommended to ensure that your iPhones and iPads remain protected against potential threats.

In related news, on November 3, Apple also released macOS Sequoia 15.7.2 and macOS Sonoma 14.8.2, which contain various security fixes aimed at enhancing the protection of Mac devices.
