Default OSX security vulnerability

Hi,

there seems to be a REAL security issue with OSX go here and read and act:


Quote:
The past month has been just a tad bit interesting. First a trojan horse vulnerability that really wasn't that much of a real-world threat and now one a bit more serious. This more serious OS X vulnerability could enable a website you visit to issue a script through your web browser that, among other things, could wipe out data or any number of pre-programmed actions.

Fortunately, there is a free solution and Jamie has created a nice web page with more information and links to get the solution as well as an example link to show an example of the vulnerability as well.

Get that info and protection online now so you rest easy surfing the net.

I believe that the security update over the weekend addressed this specific problem.
