August 1, 2008 (Computerworld) Apple Inc. issued patches for 17 vulnerabilities in Mac OS X yesterday, including one meant to fix a critical bug in the Internet’s traffic cop, the Domain Name System (DNS).

The DNS patch, however, didn’t actually patch anything, at least on the client side of the aisle, researchers said today.

“The difficult news this morning is that we thought we were getting a patch, but we haven’t gotten anything,” said Andrew Storms, director of security operations at nCircle Network Security Inc.

An article to remind you to update your operating systems regardless of the platform, Apple, Microsoft or Unix/Linux to be in support from your vendor and resolve known issues.
