Remote code flaws in browser fixed
Apple has released security updates to protect users from remote code executions in the company's Safari and OS X platforms. The company said that the Safari 6.0.3 update would include fixes to patch vulnerable components of the browser and its WebKit engine. The update includes fixes for flaws which, if targeted by an attacker, could allow for remote code execution attacks.
Additionally, the update addresses a pair of flaws in the browser which could be exploited by attackers to perform a cross-site scripting attack.
Apple is recommending that users running OS X Lion download the Safari update through the Apple Software Update application.

Apple has released an update to its Safari browser, version 6, that plugs 121 security holes, most of which involve the WebKit rendering engine.
The Safari update fixes a staggering 121 vulnerabilities, 117 of those flaws in WebKit, a browser engine designed to render HTML webpages. Most of the WebKit vulnerabilities could result in an unexpected application termination or arbitrary code execution if the user visits a maliciously created website, according to the security update.
Apple also patched two issues with the handling of feed:// URLs – one is a cross-site scripting vulnerability that could be exploited if a user visited a maliciously crafted site, and the other is an access control issue that could be exploited to send files from a user’s system to a remote server.
Another Safari fix resolves a problem in which passwords may autocomplete even when the site specifies that autocomplete should be disabled.
