Apple Releases Mega-Fix For Mac OS X, Patches 43 Vulnerabilities | |

Apple on Monday rolled out security updates to the last two editions of Mac OS X, Panther and Tiger to patch more than 40 vulnerabilities, a new record for the Cupertino, Calif.-based computer maker. Apple, which like other major vendors such as Microsoft, patches its software monthly, updated a long list of components and technologies within Mac OS X, ranging from the Safari Web browser to the short-range wireless Bluetooth. Although Apple doesn't assign criticality ratings to its patch updates, as does Microsoft, Danish vulnerability tracker Secunia ranked the fixes for Mac OS X 10.3.9 and 10.4.2 as "highly critical," its second-highest threat level. The flaws include cross-site scripting, system access, denial-of-service, data exposure, and data manipulation vulnerabilities. All told, the fixes include patches for a staggering 43 bugs. | ||
