Claude, Codex, and other AI tools credited in today’s Apple security releases
One notable detail in today’s documents is their sheer length, especially considering that Apple released the 26.5.2 updates less than a month ago and said they included fixes originally planned for the 26.6 release cycle. Another notable detail is that Anthropic researchers and Claude are credited with fixes involving WebKit, WebKit Storage, and WebDAV, some of which were made alongside researchers from Calif.io. That is the same research team that said in May it had used Anthropic’s Mythos Preview model to help build a working macOS kernel memory corruption exploit on M5 silicon in just five days.
