Apple WebKit vulnerabilities reveal your IP address, despite Private Relay
Researchers found flaws in Apple’s web browsing system that can expose a user’s internet address and approximate location, even when Apple’s Private Relay feature is turned on. This means some people may not be getting the full privacy protection they expect while browsing online.
Who is at risk
Apple users who rely on Private Relay on iPhone, iPad, or Mac for extra privacy are most at risk.
What to watch for
Watch for reports of Apple security updates and be aware that websites or online services may still be able to identify your general location even with privacy settings enabled.
What to do
Update your Apple devices and browsers as soon as fixes are available, and avoid assuming Private Relay fully hides your location in the meantime.
