The "rapid" security fixes are designed to quickly patch security flaws under active exploitation by hackers.

 

Apple on Monday released its first batch of publicly available “rapid security” patches, aimed at quickly fixing security vulnerabilities that are under active exploitation or pose significant risks to its customers.

According to a notice, the so-called Rapid Security Response updates “deliver important security improvements between software updates.”
