About Apple security releases

For the protection of our customers, Apple

doesn't disclose, discuss, or confirm security
issues until an investigation has occurred and
patches or releases are generally
available. This document lists recent
releases, including security updates and
Rapid Security Responses.

If you need technical support for a security

issue—for example, to reset your Apple ID
password or to review a recent App
Store charge—view the Get help with
security issues article.

If you believe that you've discovered a

security or privacy vulnerability in an Apple
product, learn how to submit your research.
