Beware Apple users! Government warns against critical risk: How to stay safe online
The Indian Computer Emergency Response Team (CERT-In) has issued a high-severity alert regarding multiple security vulnerabilities found across a wide range of Apple products. The flaws, if exploited, could allow attackers to execute arbitrary code, bypass security mechanisms, escalate privileges, or cause denial-of-service (DoS) conditions on affected devices. This warning is part of the recently released vulnerability note CIVN-2025-0163. According to CERT-In, the vulnerabilities impact several Apple operating systems, including iOS, iPadOS, macOS, watchOS, tvOS, and visionOS. Devices running versions older than the latest available releases are particularly at risk. The affected versions include iOS prior to 18.6, iPadOS prior to 17.7.9 and 18.6, macOS Sequoia before 15.6, macOS Sonoma before 14.7.7, macOS Ventura before 13.7.7, watchOS before 11.6, tvOS before 18.6, and visionOS before 2.6. CERT-In's advisory highlights that the risks posed by these vulnerabilities are significant. If exploited successfully, an attacker could gain unauthorised access to sensitive information, manipulate system data, disrupt services, or take complete control of the affected devices. These flaws result from a variety of technical issues, such as type confusion, integer and buffer overflows, race conditions, logic errors, improper input validation, flawed memory management, and incorrect privilege handling. Attackers can potentially exploit these by sending specially crafted requests to the targeted system. The cyber agency has assessed the overall risk as high, particularly for both individual users and organisations that depend on Apple devices for critical functions. The consequences of a successful attack could include data breaches, system downtime, and severe reputational harm. CERT-In has strongly advised users to treat this issue as a priority and take immediate steps to secure their devices. In response, Apple has released patches addressing the identified vulnerabilities. Users are urged to promptly apply these updates to ensure their systems are protected. The relevant security patches are available through Apple's official support channels and cover all impacted platforms. Users can find update details on Apple's website via dedicated links to updates for iOS, iPadOS, macOS, watchOS, tvOS, and visionOS. These include support documents with IDs such as 124148, 124149, 124150, 124151, 124155, 124147, 124153, and 124154. CERT-In has also encouraged users to adopt standard cyber hygiene practices. These include avoiding unverified applications, not clicking on suspicious links, regularly monitoring devices for abnormal activity, and keeping systems up to date with the latest software patches. Organisations should also ensure their IT teams are aware of the issue and implement the updates across all Apple-based endpoints without delay. This advisory comes as a reminder of the growing complexity of cyber threats targeting widely used consumer and enterprise technologies. With Apple products playing a key role in both personal and business environments, keeping them secure is critical. For further information, users can visit the official CERT-In website or Apple's support pages to access technical documentation and patch details.

Reports suggest Apple is working on an AI-driven answer platform
Apple has reportedly assembled a team to build an AI-powered app akin to ChatGPT, Bloomberg's Mark Gurman reports. Reportedly called Answers Knowledge Information AKI team is working on building an 'AI answer engine' capable of using the information from across the web to answer questions posed to it. This feature could be in a standalone app or provide search capability to Siri, Safari, and other Apple products. Gurman also states that Apple is hiring for this in-house AI team, as it is on the lookout for candidates with experience in search algorithms and engine development. Apple has already integrated ChatGPT Siri integration allows users to access AI-features without having to build its own app in-house. However, a more personalized, AI-powered update to Siri has been delayed on numerous accounts and is reportedly in the works. Apple may also be forced to change its search agreement with Google due to the company's recent antitrust loss. Gurman states that Apple is notably behind when it comes to artificial intelligence, and some of its leaders have even expressed skepticism at integrating ChatGPT-style search. The privacy issues surrounding OpenAI's platform has also meant Apple may be interested in a more personalized, Apple-made answer engine. The new 'answers engine' that Apple is reportedly building, could either be a standalone app. It is more likely to offer search capabilities to Siri, Safari, and other Apple products. The tech giant is actively hiring for this team, as seen on its recent job listings, with Apple specifically looking for candidates with experience with Safari search algorithms and engine development. It's worth noting that Apple is not yet on the conversational AI warpath that some other tech giants are, in which they are recruiting AI talent and paying them insane amounts of money to switch companies. Metal has reportedly been poaching top AI talent and adding them to its Super Intelligence Labs with upwards of $100 million on a multi-year deal. It's unknown as to whether Apple will be just as aggressive with its own recruiting.

Australian regulator says YouTube, others ‘turning a blind eye' to child abuse material
Australia's online safety regulator has said that major tech companies, including YouTube and Apple, are not doing enough to stop child sexual abuse material from appearing on their platforms. In a report published on Wednesday, the eSafety Commissioner said YouTube had been especially unresponsive to questions and failed to share how many user reports it receives or how long it takes to act on them. The same was said of Apple. 'When left to their own devices, these companies aren't prioritising the protection of children and are seemingly turning a blind eye to crimes occurring on their services,' said Julie Inman Grant, Australia's eSafety Commissioner, in comments reported by Reuters. The Australian government recently decided to include YouTube in its social media restrictions for teenagers, after the regulator advised against giving it an exemption. The report looked at how Apple, Google, Meta, Microsoft, Discord, Skype, Snap, and WhatsApp are addressing child abuse content. According to the findings, many platforms had gaps in safety. These included poor systems for detecting live-streamed abuse, weak methods for reporting harmful content, and a failure to block known child abuse links. The regulator also said some companies had not taken action even after being warned in previous years. It pointed out that not all companies were using 'hash-matching' technology across their services – a tool used to detect known child abuse images by comparing them to a database. 'In the case of Apple services and Google's YouTube, they didn't even answer our questions about how many user reports they received about child sexual abuse on their services or details of how many trust and safety personnel Apple and Google have on staff,' Inman Grant told Reuters. Google has previously said it uses industry-standard tools, including hash-matching and artificial intelligence, to detect and remove abuse material. Meta, which owns Facebook, Instagram and Threads, says it bans graphic content on its platforms.
