Apple releases iOS 15.2.1 update with bug fixes: How to install

Apple has released new iOS 15.2.1 and iPadOS 15.2.1 updates for its users globally. Since these updates are minor, no new feature has been introduced, instead they come with bug fixes. The iOS update fixes bugs around HomeKit, the Message app and Apple CarPlay. Although the changelog is short, the update is pretty hefty with 970MB. The changelog includes “Messages may not load photos sent using an iCloud Link” and “Third-party CarPlay apps may not respond to input”.

Apple iOS 15.2.1 update: What’s new?

According to Apple, the new iOS and iPad update bring a fix for a bug in which “processing a maliciously crafted HomeKit accessory name may cause a denial of service” this results in freezing of the device. Earlier reported by security researcher Trevor Spinilos, “When the name of a HomeKit device is changed to a large string (500,000 characters in testing), any device with an affected iOS version installed that loads the string will be disrupted, even after rebooting. Restoring a device and signing back into the iCloud account linked to the HomeKit device will again trigger the bug.”

In addition to this, the new update fixes an issue with the Messages app. Reportedly, the Messages app did not load photos sent using an iCloud link. The third fix is for Apple CarPlay. Apparently, the bug restricted third-party CarPlay apps to not respond to input.
