Apple rolls out RC versions of macOS 15.7 and 14.8 betas to developers


Just days after releasing macOS 15.6, Apple is now rolling out release candidate versions of macOS 15.7, as well as macOS 14.8.

Given the shorter-than-usual testing window and the fact that macOS Sonoma is also getting its first update since 14.7.6 back in May, it is likely that the update is security-related, but not serious or urgent enough to warrant a Rapid Security Response patch. This means Apple is backporting security patches that will be released with macOS 26, ensuring users on macOS 14 and 15 won’t be exposed to vulnerabilities addressed in the upcoming release. He began covering Apple news in Brazilian media in 2012 and later broadened his focus to the wider tech industry, hosting a daily podcast for seven years.
