With new operating system updates released on Wednesday, Apple has fixed a pair of serious zero-day security bugs that the company says “may have been actively exploited.” Andrew Cunningham for Ars Technica: One of the vulnerabilities, CVE-2023-32434, is a kernel-level flaw that can allow apps to “execute arbitrary code with kernel privileges.” The other, a WebKit bug labeled CVE-2023-32439, can allow the execution of arbitrary code after processing “maliciously crafted web content.” The iOS and iPadOS 16.5.1 updates also fix a non-security bug “that prevents charging with the Lightning to USB 3 Camera Adapter.” The updates aren’t just coming to iPhones, iPads, and Macs running the latest operating systems.

A passkey relies on broadly supported industry standards to let you carry out an encrypted login with almost no effort on your part after the initial setup.

Registered developers are able to download the tvOS 17 update by opting in to the beta through the Settings app on the Apple TV.
