  - An out-of-bounds write issue was addressed with improved checks to prevent unauthorized actions. This
    issue is fixed in Safari 18.3.1, iOS 15.8.4 and iPadOS 15.8.4, iOS 16.7.11 and iPadOS 16.7.11, iOS 18.3.2
    and iPadOS 18.3.2, iPadOS 17.7.6, macOS Sequoia 15.3.2, visionOS 2.3.2, watchOS 11.4. Maliciously crafted
    web content may be able to break out of Web Content sandbox. This is a supplementary fix for an attack
    that was blocked in iOS 17.2. (Apple is aware of a report that this issue may have been exploited in an
    extremely sophisticated attack against specific targeted individuals on versions of iOS before iOS 17.2.).
