Apple released a patch for two vulnerabilities that allow stealing cryptocurrencies

Apple has fixed two zero-day vulnerabilities that hackers used to exploit Mac computers with Intel processors.

One of them caused the JavaScriptCore engine to run malware without the user's knowledge. The second triggered a 'cross-site scripting attack' through the WebKit framework and allowed injecting malicious code into the web pages or applications being used.

The vulnerabilities were pointed out by former CEO of the Bitcoin exchange Binance, Changpeng Zhao, as they could lead to the theft of cryptocurrencies. He urged users to update to the patched version of the OS as soon as possible.
