Apple Updates Safari; Security Fix Included

Posted on by

Apple has updated versions 4 and 5 of its Safari web browser to fix a total of 15 flaws, including one that could allow “Safari’s AutoFill feature [to] disclose information to websites without user interaction,” and one where “Accessing a maliciously crafted RSS feed may cause files from the user’s system to be sent to a remote server.” The new versions are 4.1.1 and 5.0.1.

This update also includes a number of other fixes, and turns on Safari’s new extensions feature. The new versions are available via Software Update, or from Apple’s Safari Download page.
