Apple has just released an additional out-of-cycle update to XProtect, bringing it to version 5321. As usual, it doesn’t release information about what security issues this update might add or change.

This version has no changes from 5320 in its Resources property lists or Yara file. Indeed, the version number given in XProtect.meta.plist remains 5320, although those given in the bundle’s Info.plist and version.plist are 5321.

You can check whether this update has been installed by opening System Information via About This Mac, and selecting the Installations item under Software.

A full listing of security data file versions is given by SilentKnight and SystHist for El Capitan to Tahoe available from their product page. If your Mac hasn’t yet installed this update, you can force it using SilentKnight or at the command line.

If you want to install this as a named update in SilentKnight, its label is XProtectPlistConfigData_10_15-5321

Sequoia and Tahoe systems only

This update has already been released for Sequoia and Tahoe via iCloud. If you want to check it manually, use the Terminal command
sudo xprotect check
then enter your admin password. If that returns version 5321 but your Mac still reports an older version is installed, you should be able to force the update using
sudo xprotect update
