Apple Finally Wakes Up and Patches Yet Another Pair of WebKit Dumpster Fires
Oh, look, Apple’s done it again — pushed out a bunch of “urgent” security updates because apparently their WebKit engine decided to moonlight as a goddamn invitation for hackers. Two zero-day exploits were spotted running wild in the digital savannah, and suddenly Cupertino’s finest are scrambling like a caffeinated squirrel on fire to crank out patches for iPhones, iPads, and Macs everywhere.
As per usual, the updates plug holes that could’ve let some enterprising bastard execute arbitrary code, meaning someone, somewhere, was already joyriding through users’ devices like they owned the joint. Apple, naturally, dropped the patch notes like they’re doing us a bloody favor — “security update recommended for all users.” No shit, Apple. It’s recommended because you managed to turn your shiny overpriced gadgets into digital sieves… again.
So yeah, grab your device, slap that update button, and hope it doesn’t melt your battery in the process. Because nothing says “premium experience” like being hit with yet another round of “fixes” for vulnerabilities that apparently made it through the fortress of Apple’s QA team — which, I can only assume, consists of a couple of interns and a parrot trained to squawk “Ship it!”
For the curious masochists who want all the gory details, the full write-up’s here: https://thehackernews.com/2025/12/apple-issues-security-updates-after-two.html
Reminds me of the time a user told me, “I didn’t click anything!” after installing malware named TotallyNotAVirus.exe. Same energy as “We value your security. Please update now.” Yeah, sure you do. Bunch of bloody amateurs.
