Apple's support document for the updated Safari release confirms that it addresses the same WebKit memory corruption issue and an integer overflow bug for users of older versions of macOS.

Both of these vulnerabilities may have been actively exploited, so it's important for users to upgrade immediately.

Apple says that the new Safari 14.1 release includes the security content of the 14.1 update that was released on April 26, 2021. It has a build number of15611.1.21.161.7 on macOS Catalina and 14611.1.21.161.7 on macOS Mojave.

My iPhone 15 Pro Max battery level is currently at 94 percent with 299 cycles....

Does anyone have direct links to the Safari 14.1 software update packages for Mojave and Catalina?

(And how does one find the direct links for macOS updates?)

Why a day later for the other OSs, while it is supposed to be a critical security update?

Why is it that both the base OS and Safari had to be patched yesterday with macOS 11, whereas in today's updates only Safari had to be patched for macOS 10.14 and 10.15?
