Zero Day vulnerability for both iOS devices and macOS browsers that use WebKit. At this point it will only cause a restart on your iOS device and a freeze on your macOS Safari or other WebKit Browser which will re-freeze on restarting the App due to the same webpage being retained and re-opened to get out of that, force quit and hold down the Shift Key on re-entering the App).—PING!

Thanks to The Battman for the heads up.


Apple iOS and macOS WebKit zero day vulnerability Ping!

If you want on or off the Mac Ping List, Freepmail me.

Unfortunately, the finder of this problem not only notified Apple of the issue he discovered, but ALSO decided to publish his code that will create the problem on Twitter. . . not a good move.

Good thing I don’t know how to download anything to my phone or Mac.

Ever since you told me how to up my security years back my system has been blocked from any downloads.

I’ve discovered code on the many news web pages that prompts me to throw my phone to the ground, stomp on it and shout “Tim Cook is a transgender-promoting, Cadillac Communist who censors freedom lovers around the world, while leaving up jihadis like Louis Farrakhan!”
