If this was used for some kind of malware that caused your phone to be compromised as well as forward the malware to everyone in your contacts list this could be catastrophically bad. Like a modern day lovebug virus.
It was a zero day issue and probably didn’t have time to get any traction, and Apple has the best OS update rate in the industry. I don’t think it’s going to be a big deal.
there were already reports of it being exploited in the wild, but yes thankfully apple responded in time, although I still have friends and family a day later where their devices still havent been updated automatically. I suspect it will be more than a week before all automated patches go out.
