| Penetration testing specialists Core Security has publicly released information on a serious security vulnerability in Apple’s Mac OS X and criticized the computer maker for delaying the release of a patch.
The vulnerability, which only affects Apple Mac OS X v10.5, could allow hackers to take complete control of a vulnerable machine via malicious PDF files

It seems like Apple has been slow with the patches here. I am seriously doubting the security of OSX these days. It is not the first time it has a security flaw. It might be that Apple is more likely to be attacked because of their success. That will expose the flaws of course.

Yes it is kind of old news, but the flaw is new
So I decided to beat the dead horse again.
