Ismael Valenzuela pointed us at Brian Mastenbrook's blog where he has published a new information disclosure vulnerability in Safari. The vuln potentially allows a malicious website to read files on the local system.

The vulnerability applies to

  • anyone running OS.X 10.5 who have left the system default setting for the RSS feed reader. Which browser you use is irrelevant.
  • Windows users of Safari

According to Brian, Apple hasn't responded to this yet though he claims to have contacted them.
