Apple tells 1.4b iPhone users to update devices NOW… or risk being attacked

Apple is urging iPhone users to download its latest iOS patch after the company identified a major security flaw.

The fix is meant to protect Apple customers from an 'extremely sophisticated attack' that is exploiting a critical zero-day vulnerability.

The vulnerability, called CVE-2025-24201, was identified within Webkit - the browser engine used in Safari and all other internet browsers created for the iPhone or iPad.

Hackers used the flaw like an open door, creating malicious websites that would give them access to other smartphone areas outside of a victim's web browser after visiting these phony pages.

Apple is urging users to download iOS 18.3.2, which is available now.

Users should go to settings and check for the General Software Update.

The tech giant warned that the problem could impact anyone with the iPhone XS and later models.
