Any chance of this Update being made available to 12.5.5 the latest iOS available to the plain iPhone 6?

Referring to the major security flaw that Apple addressed on August 17, 2022, is there any chance of the necessary fix being made available to an iPhone 6 (NOT iPhone 6S) running the latest iOS available to it, 12.5.5 ?

The security vulnerability does not affect iOS 12.5.5.


An iPhone 6/6plus can't be updated beyond 12.5.5, it doesn't have the hardware needed to run anything higher.

If you need a higher iOS version, you will have to purchase a newer phone.
