While Patch Tuesday is a well-known event for Microsoft and Adobe users, Apple product owners this week received a dose of reality when they found themselves on the receiving end of several security updates.

Apple released multiple updates that touch most of its product portfolio and Apple fans can look forward to more of the same as the company's devices are targeted by cybercriminals, according to Symantec blogger and senior information developer Dick O'Brien. While the number of threats is miniscule compared to what Microsoft, Google and Adobe users face, they are increasing.

Après Microsoft qui a publié un Patch Tuesday bien fourni en correctifs critiques, c’est au tour d’Apple de mener un grande vague de mises à jour de sécurité sur plusieurs produits. Les OS de la firme de Cupertino sont bien évidement aux premières loges.

Différentes versions de Mac OS X sont concernées : OS X El Capitan 10.11.2, OS X Yosemite 10.10.5, et Mavericks 10.9.5. Au total, la Security Update 2015-008 corrige 54 vulnérabilités dans des services et des composants tel qu’App Sandbox, Bluetooth, Compression, Configuration Profiles, CoreGraphics, CoreMedia Playback, EFI, File Bookmark, Hypervisor, ImageIO, Intel Graphics Driver, IOAcceleratorFamily, IOHIDFamily, IOKit SCSI, Kernel, Keychain Access, OpenGL, Sandbox, Security, etc. A noter que la moitié des failles découvertes sont critiques, car elles peuvent permettre à des pirates d’exécuter du code arbitraire à distance.
