Catalina 2021-003 Security Update Not Available Yet in the Support Downloads page

Security Update 2021-003 for macOS 10.15 is currently unavailable as a standalone DMG installer.


Normally manual packages are published 2-3 days after the SU releases.


Apparently Apple postponed the delivery of the standalone disk image after numerous reports about a bug breaking Kerberos functionality - a problem which also affects macOS 10.14 "Mojave".

There's probably a reason for which May 2021 security updates for Mojave and Catalina were postponed.


I think Apple pulled both the standalone DMGs and SU installers shortly after the Kerberos bug was reported.


Supposedly a fix is already in the works and I wouldn't be surprised if the bug affects both OSes.


Once the issue is fixed the Cupertino tech giant will release the manual packages (and SU installers) containing the revised code for Kerberos.
