Only with trolls, and Arlen is King of Loser Trolls. You won't find me
slinging insults back at anyone else, since they aren't slinging
juvenile insults my way. But you want everyone to ignore that reality,
don't you? Because: troll. Efye

Apple has released security updates to address a security flaw impacting iOS, iPadOS, and macOS that it said has come under active exploitation in the wild.

And this affects Windows because...?

Arlen has a new gym. Added to the killfile list; Arlen now has sufficient
nyms that IrCOve re-orged my kf list and given him his very own folder.

At least he has kept the gym open, though I'm not a member and don't
work out at arlen's gym.

re-orging is always good when you have kf lists. Good luck!

Apple has released security updates to address a security flaw impacting
iOS, iPadOS, and macOS that it said has come under active exploitation in
the wild.

The zero-day out-of-bounds write vulnerability, tracked as CVE-2025-43300 (CVSS score: 8.8), resides in the ImageIO framework and could result in memory corruption when processing a malicious image.

"Apple is aware of a report that this issue may have been exploited in an extremely sophisticated attack against specific targeted individuals," the company said in an advisory.

The iPhone maker said the bug was internally discovered and that it was addressed with improved bounds checking. The following versions address
the security defect -

iOS 18.6.2 and iPadOS 18.6.2 - iPhone XS and later, iPad Pro 13-inch, iPad Pro 12.9-inch 3rd generation and later, iPad Pro 11-inch 1st generation
and later, iPad Air 3rd generation and later, iPad 7th generation and
later, and iPad mini 5th generation and later
iPadOS 17.7.10 - iPad Pro 12.9-inch 2nd generation, iPad Pro 10.5-inch,
and iPad 6th generation
macOS Ventura 13.7.8 - Macs running macOS Ventura
macOS Sonoma 14.7.8 - Macs running macOS Sonoma
macOS Sequoia 15.6.1 - Macs running macOS Sequoia
It's currently not known who is behind the attacks and who may have been targeted, but it's likely that the vulnerability has been weaponised as
part of highly targeted attacks.

With the latest update, Apple has so far fixed a total of seven zero-days that have been abused in real-world attacks since the start of the year: CVE-2025-24085, CVE-2025-24200, CVE-2025-24201, CVE-2025-31200, CVE-2025- 31201, and CVE-2025-43200.

Last month, the company also issued patches for a Safari vulnerability residing in an open-source component (CVE-2025-6558) that Google reported
as having been exploited as a zero-day in the Chrome web browser.

flaws.

Even if he did reply, it'd be full of his usual lies and insults. Efye

Speaking of zero days, did you see that Apple just announced a huge
security feature called Memory Integrity Enforcement?

Cool stuff!
