- Apple has released a new software update for macOS Sonoma 14.2.1 to fix a screen sharing bug that could unintentionally expose random windows on a user's screen.
- The bug was not app-specific and affected all of macOS, potentially causing the wrong window to be displayed during a video call.
- The bug was discovered by Craig Hockenberry, founder of Iconfactory, and reported to Apple in mid-November.
- Apple also released updates for iPhone (iOS 17.2.1 and iOS 16.7.4) and iPad (iPadOS 17.2.1 and iPadOS 16.7.4), but did not issue release notes for these updates.
- Users are advised to update their Mac as soon as possible to avoid any potential screen sharing mishaps.
