Apple Fixes 13 Bugs in Major OS X Patch Release

Apple released a patch Tuesday that fixes more than a dozen bugs, including a critical remote code-execution flaw in Apple Type Services. The patch release also includes a fix for a flaw in CFNetwork that enabled an attacker to intercept user credentials and other sensitive data silently on a network. The Apple patch release plugs a total of 13 holes in a variety of OS X components and add-ons, including ClamAV, PHP and Samba. The most serious bug that Apple fixed with this release is the buffer overflow in Apple’s Type Services which enables an. attacker to run arbitrary code on a remote machine.
