Quote:

Apple has released a range of patches for security holes - both old and new - for its Mac OS X operating system, which it advises users to download immediately.


The company is downplaying the issue but one security company at least is concerned that the vulnerabilities could be extremely serious. Secunia has given the five - yes, five - patches a "highly critical" rating and warned that they may allow hijacking, security bypass, data manipulation, privilege escalation, denial of service and system access.
