Apple Thoughts: Security Update 2009-001

"Apple on Thursday released the first security update of 2009, the aptly named Security Update 2009-001. The update, which is available in versions for Leopard, Leopard Server, Tiger for Intel Macs, Tiger for PowerPC-based Macs, Tiger Server for PowerPC-based Macs, and Server Universal addresses a number of flaws in OS X. Security Update 2009-001 is recommended for all users and is available via Apple's site or Software Update."

This update, the first one of 2009, addresses among other things the Safari RSS vulnerability reported by Brian Mastenbrook in January of this year. There is a detailed list available at the Apple site.
