Apple users with certain older generations of iPhones, iPads and an iPod are being urged to install a new security update. 

In a Jan. 23 notice, Apple highlighted the impact of a recently discovered vulnerability picked up by Google's Threat Analysis Group.

The tech giant said that processing "maliciously crafted web content may lead to arbitrary code execution."

"Apple is aware of a report that this issue may have been actively exploited against versions of iOS released before iOS 15.1," it said.
