14 DAY TRIAL // After releasing the iOS 11.2, tvOS 11.2 and watchOS 4.2 operating systems for supported iPhone, iPad, iPad touch, and Apple TV devices, Apple today released the macOS High Sierra 10.13.2 software update for Macs.
The macOS High Sierra 10.13.2 software update is the second maintenance release to the macOS 10.13 High Sierra operating system series, and it comes only five weeks after the first update, namely macOS High Sierra 10.13.1, which was released on October 31, 2017, with a fix for the critical KRACK Wi-Fi security vulnerability.
Probably the most important thing that Apple fixed with today's macOS High Sierra 10.13.2 update is the root password security flaw that could allow anyone with physical access to your Mac to log in as the system administrator and modify your data. So this alone should be a strong reason for all Mac users to install this update.
macOS High Sierra 10.13.2 also comes with introductory pricing for auto-renewable subscriptions to allow application developers to offer their customers a discounted introductory price for their auto-renewable subscriptions on the App Store, as well as new device management features.
Moreover, it improves compatibility with certain third-party USB audio devices, improves VoiceOver navigation when viewing PDF documents in the Preview app, and improves compatibility with Braille displays in the Mail app. Details about the security content of macOS 10.13.2 High Sierra are available on this page.
Improves the overall security, stability, and reliability of your Mac
With each new macOS maintenance update, Apple improves the overall security, stability, and reliability of your Mac, so we recommend updating to macOS High Sierra 10.13.2 as soon as possible. To update, open the Mac App Store and go to the Updates tap to install the new software version for your Mac.
macOS 10.13.2 High Sierra is officially supported on MacBook or iMac computers released in Late 2009 or later, as well as all MacBook Air, MacBook Pro, Mac mini, or Mac Pro computers released in 2010 or later. macOS 10.13 High Sierra will receive a few more such maintenance updates in the coming months.
