New OS X exploit

[Westside guy]

Lest we become too smug in Mac-land...

There's a new exploit out against OS X. Apple hasn't posted a fix yet, but there are steps you can take (see either of the links below). Looks like Safari users are the most vulnerable.

Apparently a proof of concept exploit was released with the announcement.

Geez... Apple should remove all helper apps.

First help:// now ftp://
At least Apple is getting a taste of what it must feel like to be a Microsoft programer. lol

(ps. it also does it under IE so Safari users aren't the only one's not vulnerable)
