Major security vulnerabilities found in iOS and so cute girls small innocent sex with ass xxx videomacOS devices could allow potential hackers complete control of a user's device, Apple warned on Wednesday. The company quietly published two security reports this past week on the vulnerability citing an anonymous researcher for the discovery.
Both bugs exist within WebKit, Apple’s browser engine that powers Safari and applications. Based on the reports provided by Apple, the first vulnerability would allow a hacker complete access to a user's device. Rachel Tobac, CEO of SocialProof Security, told NPR that this could allow potential attackers to impersonate the device's owner and run any kind of software in their name. She added that those "within the public eye" like journalists and activists should be attentive in getting the update.
