This also includes all iPad Pro models and the iPad Air 2. In addition, the Mac computers running on MacOS Monterey also need to be updated. 

The U.S. government’s Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency has released a warning stating that “an attacker could exploit one of these vulnerabilities to take control of an affected device.”

The security agency has said people should apply the necessary updates as soon as possible.
