<p dir="ltr" style="text-align:justify">After two serious security issues were found, Apple immediately issued an urgent update for millions of iPhone users.</p>

<p dir="ltr" style="text-align:justify">The technology behemoth issued a warning, stating that iOS 16.5.1, the most recent release of iOS 16, was necessary to guard against two vulnerabilities that hackers are already aware of how to exploit.</p>

<p dir="ltr" style="text-align:center"><img alt="Apple advised iPhone owners to update to iOS 16.5.1" src="http://gospeedcheck.com/filemanager/data-images/imgs/20230727/apple-urged-iphone-users-to-update-to-ios-16-5-1-1.jpg" style="height:500px; width:960px"></p>

<p dir="ltr" style="text-align:center"><em>Apple advised iPhone owners to update to iOS 16.5.1</em></p>

<p dir="ltr" style="text-align:justify">One of the flaws is a "malicious attachment" that can be transmitted over iMessage and provide hackers access to an iPhone's location information, audio recordings, and images.</p>

<p dir="ltr" style="text-align:justify">According to security experts, Operation Triangulation, a campaign that specifically targeted Kaspersky personnel, used the security hole known as TriangleDB, which has already been exploited.</p>

<p dir="ltr" style="text-align:justify">In a blog post earlier this month, Kaspersky stated that "the deployment of the spyware is completely hidden and requires no action from the user."</p>

<p dir="ltr" style="text-align:justify">The malware then covertly sends sensitive user data, including geolocation, microphone recordings, instant message images, and information on a variety of other behaviors of the device owner, to distant servers.</p>

<p dir="ltr" style="text-align:justify">The second flaw affects Apple's WebKit browser engine, which exposes users to arbitrary code execution. This might lead to data theft or device hacking by nefarious third parties.</p>

<p dir="ltr" style="text-align:justify">Since Apple has released security updates for all of these devices, both flaws may also affect users of iPads and Macs.</p>

<p dir="ltr" style="text-align:justify">A software update for the Apple Watch was also made available by Apple, adding additional functionality to the wristwatch.</p>

<p dir="ltr" style="text-align:justify">Although it is not yet generally accessible, the Cupertino corporation unveiled iOS 17, its most recent mobile operating system, earlier this month.</p>

<p dir="ltr" style="text-align:justify">When the next iPhone is unveiled in September, an official release date for iOS 17 will be disclosed.</p>
