Apple rolls out iOS 16.1.1 with security patch to iPhones

In late October, Apple released iOS 16.1. It introduced new features such as a shared photo library, live activities (for iPhone 14 Pro series), Wallet key sharing, Matter smart home connectivity support, and more. But, it also brought bugs in Wi-Fi connectivity and more.

Now, it has rolled out a small update iOS 16.1.1, which according to the change log brings bug fixes and also security patches as well.

As per the Apple iOS 16.1.1 release notes, it plugs a security loophole that may have allowed a remote user to cause unexpected app termination or arbitrary code execution. Apple doesn’t specifically mention whether the new update fixes the Wi-Fi connectivity bug, but it will be known very soon.
