iOS 17.1 included security fixes for more than a dozen discovered vulnerabilities. Fortunately, Apple says none of the 18 flaws were known to be exploited.
Apple has also stopped signing iOS 16.7.1, iOS 16.7, and iOS 15.7.9. This prevents downgrading to these unpatched versions of the iPhone software.
As of October 25, 2023, these are latest and most secure versions of iOS:
- iOS 17.1
- iOS 16.7.2
- iOS 15.8
