Apple RAW 2.0 update

Apple today unveiled Digital Camera RAW Compatibility Update 2.0 for Aperture 2 and iPhoto 7.1.2, which patches a security hole, and adds many RAW formats from several different vendors. The patch fixes a problem wherein Adobe Digital Negative files could trigger a buffer overflow condition, which could allow users to craft malicious image files with the intent of decreasing system stability, or taking control of a computer.

In addition to the security fix, the update also adds compatibility with RAW images from the following cameras:

  • Hasselblad CFV-16
  • Hasselblad H3D-31
  • Hasselblad H3D-31II
  • Leaf Aptus 54S
  • Leaf Aptus 65S
  • Nikon D60
  • Olympus E-3
  • Pentax *ist DL2
  • Pentax *istDS2
  • Pentax K100D Super
  • Sony DSLR-A200
  • Sony DSLR A200

WTF Apple, this camera came out 5 years ago and Adobe supports it fine. Just take the code from dcraw.c if you have to.
