Apple has released a security update to address nearly two dozen vulnerabilities in macOS High Sierra.

The update comes little more than a week after Apple had to kick out an emergency fix to close up a glaring hole in macOS that allowed anyone with access to a Mac (either in person or remote) to bypass the login screen and act as a root account.

This week's High Sierra update, numbered 10.13.2, addresses a total of 22 CVE-listed flaws in various components of the macOS operating system. Eight of the patched flaws could potentially allow code execution with system privileges if targeted.
