Last Updated: 2008-08-01 08:27:35 UTC - "Apple released their patch overnight… Most importantly it contains the workaround for the DNS bug CVE-2008-1447. Also included is an upgrade to PHP 5.2.6 (which was released in source code at http://www.php.net/ on May 1st). Seems we all need to urge Job's gang to release patches significantly faster: it's the price to pay to base parts of your system on open source code. Apple Mac OS X users get it though software update. As always it's one big patch, given that little choice, you'll want to PATCH NOW."
