| 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.
Manjaro 64bit on the main box -Intel(R) Core(TM) i7 CPU 920 @ 2.67GHz and nVidia Corporation GT200b [GeForce GTX 275] (rev a1. + Centos on the server - Arch on the laptop.
"There are no stupid questions - Only stupid answers!"
So I decided to beat the dead horse again.
