Apple has today released iOS and iPadOS 14.4.1, macOS Big Sur 11.2.3 , and

Release Notes
Apple's release notes say that these updates feature "important security
updates and are recommended for all users."
The primary security fix addresses an issue with malicious content on the
web involving memory corruption:
* Impact: Processing maliciously crafted web content may lead to
arbitrary code execution
* Description: A memory corruption issue was addressed with improved
validation.
How to update
iOS and iPadOS 14.4.1 are available via Over-the-Air Update (Settings >
General > Software Update) via Finder on a Mac with macOS Catalina or later,
or via iTunes on a PC or Mac with macOS Mojave or earlier.
Before updating, we strongly recommend making a full and complete backup of
your device (either locally or in iCloud, depending on personal preference).
This will ensure that, in the unlikely event that something goes wrong
during the update process, you will have a current backup on hand in case a
device restore becomes necessary. Also, if using OTA update, we recommend
plugging your device into a power source for the duration of the
download/installation process, so as to prevent the unlikely event of your
battery going dead during the update.
More information on how to update the software on your device is available
on <https://support.apple.com/en-us/HT204204> this Apple Support page.
To install macOS Big Sur 11.2.3 , choose System Preferences from the Apple
menu, then click the Software Update preference pane to check for updates.
If any updates are available, click the Update Now button to install them.
Or click "More info" to see details about each update and select specific
updates to install.

watchOS 7.3.2 is available via Over-the-Air Update (Settings > General >
Software Update) or by going to the Watch app on your iPhone and navigating
to General> Software Update. To install the update, your Watch must be
