This kind of thing has been in prior release notes.
Not sure why the media is all over it this time.

My point is that Apple themselves don’t often report occurrences of possible 
exploits of vulnerabilities. Other tech media do.

Not exactly. Past vulnerabilities have been reported in the tech media. This 
time for some reason, the main stream media is reporting it, and making a big 
deal out of it.

It is because Apple has reported that a vulnerability that has now been 
patched, ‘may have been exploited’, though Apple doesn’t go into detail about 
which volnerability specifically. Such a report is rare for Apple to publish.

Subject: Re: Question about IOS update
These security patches are really nothing new.  Apple has issued this kind of 
update before without the news media giving it so much attention.
I don’t understand why the update is getting so much attention this time.

I was going to wait to install the update, but after reading the article about 
the security flaws and apples urging people to update right away I will. My 
brother in law even called me after he watched the evening news on ABC I think 
and told me about the major security flaws.

So I guess it is not a good idea to wait.
