From the same article:

'Apple has already patched the bugs'

*AirPlay devices hacked over Wi-Fi; CarPlay too*
<https://9to5mac.com/2025/04/29/millions-of-airplay-devices-can-be-hacked-over-wi-fi-carplay-too/>
"a vulnerability in Apple┬ software development kit (SDK) means
that tens of millions of those devices could be compromised
by an attacker."

From there:

'Apple says it has issued patches for all its own devices, as well as
making fixes available to the makers of third-party products.'

*Apple Airplay-Enabled Devices Hacked via Wi-Fi*
<https://www.wired.com/story/airborne-airplay-flaws/>
"hackers to move within a network just as easily,
spreading malicious code from one infected device to another"

And from Wired:

'Apple told Oligo, though these bugs have been patched in updates over
the last several months,'

And:

'and Apple tells WIRED that those bugs could have only been exploited
when users changed default AirPlay settings.'

Another tempest in a teapot for Arlen.

I saw an announcement of the vulns and then saw that they had been
patched already. That's when I moved on to more relevant things. :-)

Yep. Good for for groups for getting this fixed before announcing this news.
