Multiple vulnerabilities have been discovered in Apple iOS, iPadOS, and watchOS, which could allow for arbitrary code execution.
- Apple iOS is a mobile operating system for mobile devices, including the iPhone, iPad, and iPod touch.
- iPadOS is the successor to iOS 12 and is a mobile operating system for iPads.
- watchOS is the mobile operating system for the Apple Watch and is based on the iOS operating system.
Successful exploitation of these vulnerabilities could result in arbitrary code execution. An attacker could then execute code with privileges given to the mail application, delete emails, crash the mail application, and cause device slowdowns.
Systems Affected:
- Apple iOS 7.0 through IOS 12.4.1
- Apple iOS 13.0 through IOS 13.4.1
- iPadOS 13.1.0 through iPadOS 13.4.0
- watchOS prior to 5.3.7
- watchOS 6.0 through 6.2.0
Risk:
Businesses:
