Safari 4 Security Update Released

Friday July 10, 2009

Safari 4.02, for Mac and Windows, was released yesterday to address a couple of serious security issues. Both vulnerabilities can be triggered by visiting a maliciously crafted website and could result in arbitrary code execution or a cross-site scripting attack. Also included in version 4.02 are stability improvements to the browser's JavaScript engine.

About's Tom Nelson has further details on the release. It is recommended that Safari users upgrade their browsers immediately.
