Apple yesterday released its usually set of updates across its entire portfolio of operating systems. Some issues of note:

The update includes a patch for CVE-2022-42856 for iOS 12.5. This will help users of older Apple devices going back to the iPhone 5s. More recent operating systems received this patch in December.
tvOS is missing. I expect a tvOS update soon to address some of the vulnerabilities.
I do not see updates for git. Git last week patched some vulnerabilities; likely too late to be included in this update.
