Apple has recently released updates to its various operating systems. These updates address multiple vulnerabilities, the most severe of which could lead to code execution that could resulting in installing malicious software or even viewing, changing or deleting data.

OIT recommends all Apple users install updates as soon as possible.

SYSTEMS AFFECTED:

• iOS and iPadOS prior to 15.3.1
• macOS Monterey prior to 12.2.1
• Safari prior to 15.3 (v. 16612.4.9.1.8 and 15612.4.9.1.8)

For Mac OS, users are often prompted to the latest version. However, users should not upgrade to Monterey without the latest version of McAfee antivirus software. If you’re not sure, please upgrade to the latest version of your current operating system. This is Big Sur for many users.
