• Safari On Windows A Security Risk

    Tuesday, June 12th, 2007

    safari.pngApple’s newly released Safari Browser for Windows is coming under fire for all the wrong reasons today with separate reports indicating that the browser presents a security risk to Windows users.

    Thor Larholm has published a 0day exploit that causes Safari to shut down when visiting a site with malicious code.

    David Maynor at Errata Security claims to have found 6 bugs, 4 Denial of Service and 2 remote code execution bugs.

    The browser has met with mixed reviews; the ability to quickly render sites being countered by visually foreign (to Windows users) font rendering and a failure to support the Vista Aero interface.
