Apple delivers seven security fixes for Tiger

Apple's Mac OS X 10.4.3 update, released earlier today, addresses several security flaws in both the client and server versions of Mac OS X Tiger. The update addresses seven separate issues, including a bugs (1) in the Finder that incorrectly displays file/group ownership, (2) in Software Update that may not install certain software updates, (3) in group permissions under Mac OS X 10.4.2 Server where changes may not be immediately applied, (4) in Keychain which may display certain passwords after the lock timeout, and (5,6,7) in the kernel that may display memory information to local users. The security fixes can be obtained by applying the free update to both the client and server versions of Tiger.
