Today’s release of macOS Sequoia brings 70+ new security fixes

macOS Sequoia has officially launched with new features and improvements such as window tiling, iPhone Mirroring, the new Password app , and more. But under the hood, Apple delivered a staggering amount of patched bugs/vulnerabilities to Mac users. These are the 76 security patches that come with the first public release of macOS 15 Sequoia.

The release of macOS Sequoia includes a significant number of security fixes, which is not surprising for a major .0 release. However, this is the most extensive list of CVEs I’ve ever seen in a single update.

It’s great to see so many researchers and developers working to report bugs and flaws to help make the release of Sequoia as airtight as possible. Apple shared details of each on its Security Updates page . The CVEs range from kernel vulnerabilities to addressing access to sensitive data in apps like Siri, Maps, and Shortcuts.

These fixes help prevent potential exploits like arbitrary code execution, privilege escalation, and memory leaks. Apple also implemented patches to protect against various attacks by improving memory handling, input validation, and sandbox restrictions. Here’s the full list of 76 security fixes with macOS Sequoia: Available for: Mac Studio (2022 and later), iMac (2019 and later), Mac Pro (2019 and later), Mac Mini (2018 and later), MacBook Air (2020 and later), MacBook Pro (2018 and later), and iMac Pro (2017 and later) Impact: An app may be able to leak sensitive user information Description: The issue was addressed with improved checks.
