If you have an iPhone, or really any Apple device, you'll want to download the latest software update from Apple that just came out today (June 1)
Apple's new software update focuses on security and patches flaws that can jailbreak a device
Specifically, the release notes for iOS 1351 and iPadOS 1351 state that the update addresses "memory consumption issues" with "improved memory handling"
It doesn't take much detective work to figure out how Apple was warned of this flaw, especially since the credit for finding this flaw is given to "unc0ver" Last week, a new version of the unc0ver jailbreak appeared promising to work on all current iPhones
Allegedly, the person who worked on the unc0ver jailbreak said it exploits a "zero-day" vulnerability in iOS of which Apple was unaware
This release patches the flaw that allows the unc0ver jailbreak and no other flaws If you are using or plan to use the uncOver jailbreak, you should leave iOS 135 alone
Apple released iOS 135 late last month It's a software update that makes it easier to unlock smartphones when wearing a mask, as more and more people are doing these days due to the COVID-19 outbreak
iOS 135 has also introduced other, less welcome issues like repeated reboots on the iPad for some users and flaws in playback of MP4/MPEG-4 encoded content Apple's iOS 1351 release notes make no mention of these issues
Today's security update is not just for iPhone and iPad users Apple also released new versions of tvOS, watchOS, and macOS for High Sierra and Catalina users that address the same vulnerabilities More information can be read on Apple's security update site
