The last two weeks have really been bad for Apple. It’s taken a while for their poor testing standards to rear it’s ugly head.

More proof you are nothing but an anti-Apple troll. . . This proves their testing works. The two updates were extremely minor fixes of things that affected very few users. Your purpose is merely bashing Apple. No company has a more secure environment than Apple.

Au contraire, the last two weeks have shown Apple actively identifying & eradicating malware before the problems are publicized. This in contrast to, say, Android having a longstanding and largely unfixable password crack (enter a long but wrong password and it logs you in anyway), and Microsoft maliciously abusing customer resources (pre-download Win10 without permission).

Yes, creative malicious people can abuse features to evade security. Seems Apple is doing better than others in finding & fixing such things, making the rare trespasses newsworthy instead of boringly common.
