US-based technology giant Apple recently released iOS 17 for all iPhones. Now all users with a supporting iPhone can use the company’s latest software features. However, Apple’s iOS 17 adventure was short-lived. The company has released a new update for the operating system that is just a few days old. Thus, the current version was upgraded to iOS 17.0.1.
The update coded iOS 17.0.1 does not offer any new features to users. The company is focused on security vulnerabilities in this intermediate version. According to the official statement, several critical security vulnerabilities were closed with this update. If you have upgraded to iOS 17, we recommend that you upgrade to iOS 17.0.1 without delay.
What kind of security vulnerabilities were closed in the new update?
