Apple is going to fix some issues in the current iteration of iOS 7 with a minor yet significant update. The bug-fixing update, 7.1.2 will address the email attachment encryption issue that a large number of 7.1.1 users are experiencing. Apple has been testing the incremental iOS update for at least a month and will release it in a week or two. The update will also fix the issue which is causing the failure in downloading emails in 7.1.1. The update also includes a fix for a lock screen vulnerability that allows access to some apps, probably the missed call bug that let someone bypass the passcode in 7.1.1. The bug was discovered earlier this month and Apple promised to fix the bug as soon as possible. There is no word from Apple whether the iMessage bug will also be covered in the new update or not, however improvement to iBeacon connectivity and a bug fix concerning data transfer with third-party accessories are said to be included in iOS 7.1.2.
