Apple has released two large security updates to its Safari web browser, with new versions being Safari 5.0.3 and Safari 4.1.3. These updates correct 28 vulnerabilities with WebKit, the HTML page rendering framework used by Safari, and by other programs on Mac OS X. As Apple says:

Safari 5.0.3 and Safari 4.1.3 address the same set of security issues. Safari 5.0.3 is provided for Mac OS X v10.5, Mac OS X v10.6, and Windows systems. Safari 4.1.3 is provided for Mac OS X v10.4 systems.
