Apple on Wednesday released iOS 15.2.1 and iPadOS 15.2.1 to the public with minor bug fixes and other improvements.
Wesley Hilliard for AppleInsider:
Apple says that the release addresses a HomeKit denial of service issue, a problem where third-party CarPlay apps may lose touch sensitivity, and a bug where Messages may not load photos sent using an iCloud link.
The HomeKit DDoS attack was revealed by a researcher on January 1 and could be executed by entering a device name of over 500,000 characters. Devices that tried to load the device name could be placed into a reboot cycle and made unusable
MacDailyNews Take: On our test iPhones and iPads, both iOS 15.2.1 and iPadOS 15.2.1 seem snappy!

Continue to have Issues in Messages showing as either not sent or now downloadable on my Mac – despite them showing just Fine on the iOS Devices…
I’ve had the most annoying Safari issue on my 12 Pro where the search field is completely whited out as I type, making whatever characters typed invisible. I have to force close safari which makes it work perfectly temporarily but within a few uses, issue comes back.
Are we sure there is no backdoor surveillance within this OS ?
No?
Still no upgrade for me from present iOS 14.X.X
