Apple Patches Everything

Apple today release updates for tvOS, Xcode, macOS (Bug Sur, Monterery and Cataline), iOS, iPadOS and WatchOS. In addition to new features, the updates patch a total of 86 vulnerabilities. One of the vulnerabilities, a privilege escalation vulnerability, is already actively exploited (CVE-2022-222675).

Apple does not assign ratings to the vulnerabilities. Below ratings are assigned by us, and follow roughly this scale:
- critical: code execution issues
- important: privilege escalation issues, DoS
- moderate: information disclosure, unless the information can be used for privilege escalation.

Some vulnerabilities are rated as "other" if we didn't get around to assigning them yet, or if they are not described well enough.
