The operating system kernel, which is the core part, contains the zero-day vulnerability, designated CVE-2022-42827. Apple says on its support page, “An application may be able to execute arbitrary code with kernel privileges. Apple is aware of a report that this issue may have been actively exploited”. It basically suggests that the corporation is patching the issue with the most recent update despite the possibility that hackers are aware of the vulnerability.
