Apple appears to be working on a bug that allows the Safari browser in iOS 15, and iPadOS 15 to reveal data that can lead to the discovery of your identity.

On GitHub, a WebKit commit indicates that Apple has its engineers working on a fix to exterminate the bug. This is expected to be disseminated shortly to iPhone, iPad, and Mac users via updates to iOS, iPadOS, and macOS Monterey respectively. WebKit is the web browser engine used by Safari and since Apple requires all browsers on the iPhone and iPad to be driven by WebKit, third-party browsers such as Chrome and Edge are afflicted with the same bug on iOS 15, and iPadOS 15.

The bug does not impact Safari 14 on macOS, or the mobile browser on iOS 14, and iPadOS 14. However, with 72% of iPhone models released over the last four years and, that works out to a large number of Apple handsets that can be exploited.
