iOS 18.4.1 Update Addresses Active Security Attacks

iOS 18.4.1 Update Combats Active Security Exploits

Apple published an urgent iOS 18.4.1 update for iPhone customers to patch two severe security holes used in targeted attacks. This unexpected interim upgrade comes two weeks after iOS 18.4, before the anticipated May release of iOS 18.5.

Fixed critical zero-day vulnerabilities that were extensively exploited, this fast update's main purpose. Apparently, “extremely sophisticated attacks” targeting “specific targeted individuals” exploited these flaws.

Two major security issues iOS 18.4.1 resolves are:

Google's Threat Analysis Group and Apple found a CoreAudio framework vulnerability (CVE-2025-31200) in the iPhone. This issue might interpret malicious media files and execute remote code. Apple said this vulnerability "may have been exploited in an extremely sophisticated attack against specific targeted individuals on iOS." This may be a "Podcast of death," emphasising the risk. Core Audio has a “high CVSS score of 7.5”.

Apple revealed CVE-2025-31201, an RPAC vulnerability. This vulnerability lets an attacker with arbitrary read and write capabilities bypass pointer authentication. Apple said a “extremely sophisticated attack” may have exploited this vulnerability. Violating Pointer Authentication, a security mechanism designed to prevent memory disclosure attacks, may allow hackers to access private memory areas, which might be disastrous. The CVE score for this RPAC vulnerability is 6.8.

CISA's Known Exploited Vulnerabilities Catalogue includes both vulnerabilities due to their high risk. Security experts recommend installing this update immediately for all iPhone owners. All users should "immediately update Apple devices."

The nature of these flaws and the fast release of iOS 18.4.1 between major updates suggest malware was utilised in the targeted attacks. This is supported by Google's Threat Analysis Group, which identifies comparable weaknesses. Spyware may provide hackers full access to a device, including encrypted audio and video. The early attacks appear to have targeted government officials and journalists, but if the details are released, these vulnerabilities may be used more generally.

iOS 18.4.1 addresses a “rare issue” that prevented some cars from connecting to wireless CarPlay and improves security. Importantly, this issue did not affect wired CarPlay. Apple acknowledged that this issue was rare but caused “significant frustration for users who rely on navigation and media features while driving.”

The iPhone XS, iPhone Xs Max, iPhone XR, second- and third-generation iPhone SE, iPhone 11 through iPhone 16, and the iPhone 16e, may all get iOS 18.4.1.

Update installation

To update iPhones, go to Settings > General > Software Update and select “download and install”. Sources say the 570 MB update should take less than 10 minutes, depending on device performance and internet access. Apple also released updates for macOS Sequoia 15.4.1, tvOS 18.4.1, visionOS 2.4.1, watchOS 11.4, and Safari 18.4 to fix security flaws. Apple claims the real-life hacks targeted iOS devices. Possibly because these vulnerabilities do not affect iOS 17, early iPhone devices do not have an iOS 17 update. Apple stops providing security fixes for iOS 17 customers who upgrade to iOS 18.

Due to active exploitation of zero-day vulnerabilities, all eligible iPhone owners should upgrade to iOS 18.4.1 immediately. Targeted assaults need quick reaction to prevent broad exploitation.
