This means that you can reinstall macOS Catalina WITHOUT DESTROYING YOUR DATA and then install the previously downloaded Security Update 2021-006 Catalina which still not contains the HD4000 bug. To do so


  1. Boot your Mac with CMD+R pressed for the local recovery partition (CMD+ALT+R for recovery directly from Apple servers via internet if you don't have a recovery partition)
  2. Choose Reinstall MacOS
  3. Choose your system disk as target
  4. this takes approx. 30 minutes, maybe more depending on your harddisk
  5. After that SystemSettings offers several additional updates. DO NOT install the 007 Update! All others may (and should) be installed.
  6. Download "Security Update 2021-006 Catalina" here: https://support.apple.com/kb/DL2085 if not already done so.
  7. Install the just downloaded update


That's it. (Done so at Nov.27, 2021 on my Mac Mini Late 2012, Core i7 2.6 GHz QuadCore)


Now the most recent security problems (which are addressed by update 007) remain, but your Mac works as expected / as before.

That's a special compromise for a special situation. No more but no less. Hope that helps.
