TechFlow reported on November 10 that, according to Apple's security advisory, the iOS and iPadOS 27.2.1 update fixed multiple security vulnerabilities, including one in Messages that could allow remote attackers to join iMessage group chats and receive messages.

Another Messages vulnerability could allow users newly added to a group chat to read messages sent before they joined. Apple also fixed issues in which malicious Bluetooth devices could pair without user interaction and attackers within Bluetooth range could bypass pairing code attempt limits.
