The UAE’s Telecommunications Regulatory Authority (TRA) has issued a warning to Apple users in the UAE about the need for security updates to iOS and iPadOS.

This comes as a result of “vulnerabilities discovered in iOS and iPadOS that could allow the execution of arbitrary code with kernel privileges and disclose kernel memory content”, the TRA said on Friday.


The TRA added in a statement: “We recommend users to install iOS 14.2 and iPadOS 14.2 that include fixes to the vulnerabilities.”
