Multiple people are suffering effects from these two patch’s. A user named “Steve27” in another thread related to this issue mentioned this article:
https://mrmacintosh.com/mojave-2020-005-security-update-causing-major-problems-updated/
it was very helpful in explaining the scope of the issue but more importantly what to do about it.
basically
reinstall your MacOS, he explains how in the article.
then you will be faced with when to reinstall the two new updates. The order of the installation of those two updates is critical. Only one way works.
I reinstalled my OS, which was 10.14.6 and it fixed all of my problems, but I haven’t yet reinstalled the security update or the Safari update.
(User) Steve27 said he did the security update first and all was well. Then he lastly upgraded Safari and all was well. (Brave was he). You can search for his comments yourself to verify what he said and did. I can’t remember the name of the thread as I type this.
