Apple has released iOS 12.5.6 for older iPhone and iPad users on Wednesday, including iPhone 5s, iPhone 6, iPhone 6 Plus, iPad Air, iPad mini 2, iPad mini 3, and iPod touch (6th generation).
You can update your older devices by going to Settings > General > Software Update.
This update comes nearly one year after Apple released iOS 12.5.5 on September 23, 2021. That update included security fixes.
According to Apple, iOS 12.5.6 fixes a WebKit security bug where “web content may lead to arbitrary code execution. Apple is aware of a report that this issue may have been actively exploited,” it says. This was discovered and reported by an anonymous researcher.
