Description
Two zero-day vulnerabilities affecting Apple devices running iOS 15 and macOS Monterey were actively exploited and patched in August 2022. One is a kernel out-of-bounds write flaw allowing arbitrary code execution with kernel privileges (CVE-2022-32894). The other is a WebKit out-of-bounds write vulnerability enabling code execution via malicious web content (CVE-2022-32893). Apple released patches in iOS 15.6.1 and macOS Monterey 12.5.1 to address these issues. Users were urged to update immediately due to active exploitation reports.
