Apple Safari gets security fix in update

Apple has issued its second security update in three days, patching seven vulnerabilities in Safari, including one in the Windows version that the company fixed two months ago for most Mac users.

But unlike the operating system security update issued Monday , which didn't deliver patches for Mac OS X 10.4, aka Tiger, Wednesday's upgrade applies to users running Safari on that 2005 operating system.

Apple traditionally stops providing security updates for its oldest still-supported OS several months after the release of a new edition, but apparently will continue supporting Safari on Tiger.
