Safari 14.1 is not available on my Mac Mini running Mojave. I updated to 14.1 on my work computer few days ago, but don’t see it on my machine. Did they pull the update cause I see it here? I even performed the 2021-003 security update in case that was required. Thanks.

About the security content of Safari 14.1 - Apple Support

This document describes the security content of Safari 14.1.

When did it get pulled? 14.1 installed on my machine on 04/25/21 through SilentKnight.
 
safari is now 14.0.3 and has more safari than the older versions,
so they say

which is the latest update so be careful of other websites offering fake versions

Great! Thank You! for the reply. I'll have to read up on what's going on with it. I don't use Safari, I just keep it updated due to its parasitic relationship with other Apple apps and the nagging warnings to update it . . .
 
Hmm. This is my post on another thread about Safari update being broken (again). Now wondering if the 14.1 Mojave version (which fixed the issue I was having with WeTransfer) from MacUpdate is genuine.

Safari 14.1 is completely unusable

Ran lastest Mojave security and Safari update. I should know better than to blindly install updates these days! Safari immediately unusable for many website, such as WeTransfer, reload loop ending in "a problem repeatedly occurred error". After the woes of the upload button being broken for...

I have yet to apply it, but a new Safari 14.1 update has appeared in Software Update. Makes no mention of being revised in any way.

I don't use Safari, so the 14.1 that was pulled had no palpable bad effects for me, but hopefully, it resolves whatever it was that broke.

Edit -- ah, that's what you get for skipping the front page and going directly to the forums. The new one also addresses the WebKit patches, so I guess there doesn't need to be a Security Update 004 for the time being.
