GoKawiilApple issues third release candidates for macOS Sequoia 15.8.2 and Tahoe 26.7.2
Apple has released the third developer and public release candidates for macOS Sequoia 15.8.2 (build 24H230) and macOS Tahoe 26.7.2 (build 25G330), alongside the first RC for macOS 27.2 Golden Gate. Apple's release notes describe the updates only as containing "important security fixes" recommended for all users.
GoKawiil's interpretation of the reporting above, not reported fact.
The repeated RC cycles suggest Apple is still refining these security patches before a wider rollout, which could happen alongside macOS 27.2 Golden Gate in the coming weeks. Full details of the vulnerabilities addressed will likely only emerge once the updates ship officially, as has been Apple's pattern with prior point releases.
- Third RCs released for macOS Sequoia 15.8.2 and macOS Tahoe 26.7.2
