Apple has pushed a series of software updates yesterday, including those for iOS, iPadOS, watchOS, macOS and so on. In the macOS Catalina 10.15.2 update, Apple seems to have fixed the sonic boom on the 16-inch MacBook Pro.

The release of macOS Catalina may reduce the complaints of Mac iTunes users about Apple’s bloated media management and player applications, but for Windows users, the pain seems to continue indefinitely.

Apple officially updated its iTunes page to guide Mac users to upgrade to macOS Catalina and offered three choices for Windows users: standard 64-bit and 32-bit versions, plus a Windows 10 S version of the Microsoft Store. On the app page of the Microsoft Store, we saw a lot of bad reviews: 46% of store users rated only one star for iTunes.

Apple admitted the serious Bluetooth security vulnerability and fixed it

The Bluetooth SIG, the official body responsible for wireless communication technology standards, has admitted that there is a serious Bluetooth security vulnerability that can make it easier for attackers to force pairing with your device.

The Bluetooth connection works when both devices agree to connect. One sends a request, the other must accept it, and authenticates the identity of the device by exchanging the public key and generates an encryption key for the connection to ensure the security.
