10.0

ADDED

• alongside of a "new zero-days fixed" tweet:
  • it will tweet how many unique zero-days were fixed that day as Apple fixes same vulnerabilities over different systems
  • now it will check how many zero-days are actually new, and how many were fixed before as Apple may for example release a zero-day fix for iOS, and the next day a fix for the same zero-day in macOS. It will then tweet if a zero-day is new, or if it is an additional update for a previous zero-day. The bot will save zero-day CVEs to a separate file, and check it when new a release with zero-day fixes is released
• iosYearlyReport function that tweets how many security issues Apple fixed in previous 4 versions:
  • was extended to macOS, watchOS and tvOS
  • now also counts and tweets how many releases each series had

FIXED

• if Apple added or updated any entries on previous release notes, the changes would not get tweeted as it was only checking this on new releases instead of last 20 releases
• if Apple thanked a researcher for assistance with Kernel under "Additional recognition", it would count it as a Kernel bug when tweeting which parts of the iOS got the most bug fixes
• other improvements to regex and counting

9.0

ADDED

• when new iOS starts in September, the bot will count all the vulnerabilities fixed in the previous four iOS series
• the bot now creates threads if the original tweet is too long instead of creating two separate tweets
