Apple releases Tiger, Leopard security updates
December 18th, 2007 by Tom Krazit
It's download time again for Mac OS X users, as 31 new security-related fixes for both Tiger and Leopard were made available by Apple this week.
The security patches are mostly geared for users of Mac OS X 10.4, known as Tiger, but there's a bunch as well for version 10.5, known as Leopard. They should be automatically pushed to Mac users through the Software Update function, but you can also go to Apple's Web site and download the patches.
A number of serious vulnerabilities, such as ones that could lead to a malicious attack on your system, are fixed with the latest update. This includes several flaws that could lead to a remote attacker executing malicious code on a Mac in programs like Address Book, the Safari browser's RSS feed, and CUPS (common Unix printing system), among other things.
Apple updated QuickTime last week in order to fix an important flaw in that program. As part of Monday's patches, Apple also shipped a patch for Windows users of Safari that was addressed for Mac users as part of the larger series of patches.







Sherene, did you get an email receipt when you bought the product. I am assuming it is an iTunes voucher. I would suggest you reply back to the email you received when you bought the itunes voucher and explain the situation.
