Where is new security patch?

It's not in Software Update and I can't find it on Apple website ... but it's all over the IT news sites.

Here's a recent sample from my Software Update log - the last Security Update was in May.
Here are the links:
Security Update 2006-003
Security Update 2006-002.
Security Update 2006 -001
Security Update 2005-009
et cetra....
Other software updates also include security aspects such as patching hoe, where arbitary code can be executed i.e. in iChat/Bluetooth both of which made fairly big news in the blogs this year.
And here's the Security Update summary which covers all important updates.
I haven't seen any recent reports (last few days) and I regularly read several Mac/Computer blogs.

After some deeper research I found this security report. It would seem 10.4.7 patched 5 security flaws. I would guess they don't exist in 10.3.9 or below.
iTunes 6.0.5 also patched a issue where arbitary code could be executed through an AAC file.
Nothing to worry about here... The news about it came out after the security patch.
Most of the hype will be from Apple bashers wanting to prove OS X isn't as good as it's made out (it's a darn sight better than Windoze in all most all respects) and Security companies (like Symantec) wanting Mac users to start spending out cash on Security Software. Personally I'll take a serious interest once a security announcement comes a long time before Apple patches it!!!!

New security patch for ios 6.1.3 on iphone

just read a new article on yahoo news, urging folks with iphones, ipads and the itouch, to update the latest patch for a newly discovered security vulnerability.
The article gave instructions on how to update ios 6.1.3 on the iphone but those instructions don't work for me because my iphone 4s only shows the update to upgrade to ios7 and I do not want to do that.
is there a way to get rid of the prompt to upgrade to 7? And is there a way to update ios 6.1.3 and get the security patch?
Thanks.

It's the customer's choice to update or not update. If they want the security patch, they update. If they don't, then they don't.
Only the customer can decide what is more important to them; retaining iOS 6 on their device or improving the security of the device.
The only 'rock & hard place' are because of their personal choices.
Oldhippie, only YOU can decide that. IMHO, security is more important than aesthetics. But you need to be comofrtable with the decision, and no one here can help with that.

Installed new security patch problem

Yesterday installed the latest OSX 10.5.8 security patch and now all incoming mail is being rejected with 550 - no such user, etc. Erased users and re-entered them still no joy. Any help/ideas appreciated. Bruce

IPad2 Version 5.1.1 & new security patch

I have an Ipad 2 with version 5.,1.1 that I have never updated. I have updated my Iphone to i0S 7 system ND i HATE IT! soI do not want to update my Ipad. I know it limits me in some ways but the new upgrade on my iphone has me wanting to now no longer have an iphone I dislike it so much. If I could revert it back I certainly would.
For my Ipad 2 then with my current 5.1.1 version....I want to know:
-since I am using 5.1.1 do I still need to add the patch? or am I ok security wise or not?
-if I add the patch will it automatically update my Ipad to i0S 7?
-do I have a choice here & still can remain secure?
Also...I have a personal hotspot that I use if I am in public places.
thanks

Your choices are to keep it at 5.1.1 and take the risk or update it to iOS7 and get the patch
Any device that is eligible for iOS7 will be updated to iOS7 and the only devices that can get the iOS6 patch are the iTouch 4 and iPhone 3.
Ultimately it's your choice, security risk or update your iOS

Oracle XE, where are the security patches? ( Pete Finnigan)

http://www.petefinnigan.com/weblog/archives/00000973.htm
Good that somebody worry about Oracle XE users security. I must agree with Pete that "its not a good idea to expose it to the internet even via a web based application". What do you think about Oracle XE security?

Is there a legitimate concern here or is this an "Open ended write me an essay" question?

I've completed the new security download routine 3 times, and Firefox keeps telling me I need to download again.

I've downloaded the new security patch 3 times in the last couple of weeks, put it in my applications and from there onto the dashboard, and Firefox keeps telling me that I need to download it again. This is crazy... Firefox can't recognize it's own application???

If there are problems with updating or with the permissions then easiest is to download the full version and trash the currently installed version to do a clean install of the new version.
Download a new copy of the Firefox program and save the disk image (dmg) file to the desktop
*Firefox 15.0.x: http://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/all.html
*Trash the current Firefox application (e.g. open the Applications folder in the Finder and drag the Firefox application to the Trash) to do a clean (re-)install
*Install the new version that you have downloaded
*https://support.mozilla.org/kb/Installing+Firefox+on+Mac
Your profile data is stored elsewhere in the Firefox Profile Folder, so you won't lose your bookmarks and other personal data if you uninstall and (re)install Firefox.

After security patch 03/04/2014 OSX 10.7.5, first one, then a second, external backup drive no longer recognized. Diagnostics for the FireWire one displays brand name of unit, but Time Machine and its own app don't see it. Where do I start?

Yesterday I installed the security patch, OSX 10.7.5 to my IMac that is about 2 years old.
Today my Seagate BackupPlus for Mac will power on but is not recognized. It does not show up as a device, Time Machine says the latest backup was DELAYED, last successful at 03/04/2014 9:35 PM (yesterday) and next backup would begin when the disk was connected. An error message I did not save said basically the drive was not recognized.   I did all drive's troubleshooting steps, including installing a newer version of their app. I tried swapping USB for FireWire, changing electrical outlets, etc.
It seems a bit coincidental to have 2 drives "fail" simultaneously. Is anyone else having this issue after this security patch? What would be the approach from the Mac side? TIA for any assistance.
Please see below regarding the second drive. Is this a red herring, or does it help pinpoint where the failure might lie?
I also have a Seagate GoFlex that WAS recognized until I did the troubleshooting on the other drive. When I put it back on after testing the other drive with FireWire, it now is no longer recognized.
Diagnostics says this about that:
FireWire Bus:
Maximum Speed:          Up to 800 Mb/sec
GoFlex Mac:
Manufacturer:          Seagate
Model:          0x6090
GUID:          0x2037600121908F
Maximum Speed:          Up to 800 Mb/sec
Connection Speed:          Up to 800 Mb/sec
Sub-units:
GoFlex Mac Unit:
Unit Software Version:          0x10483
Unit Spec ID:          0x609E
Firmware Revision:          0x111
Sub-units:
GoFlex Mac SBP-LUN:
Thirdly, in after one of the testing/reboot loops, the HP WiFi printer was no longer recognized, but after a few more it came back.

I have a similar problem.
Moreover, as my external drive is split in 2 for (a) regular storage // (b) time machine usage, I can see in the Finder that I can connect to the (a) regular storage part and use it normally (image 1).
And I cannot connect to the backup part in Finder , nor see it in Disk Utility, nor use it in Time Machine (although it's listed in the Time Machine preferences, image 2), as it does not connect (image 3).
Can somebody help?

Creating new databases after latest security patch applied

10.2.0.4
If I create a database AFTEr applying the opatch for the October 2009 security patch, do I need to also run:
@catbundle.sql cpu apply
Or is it included in the create database? I use the DBCA to create new databases.

This is what Oracle states on metalink doc id: 422303.1
Once the bundle patch or the Critical Patch Update (CPU) patch is applied on an ORACLE_HOME should you run post-installation scripts for every newly created Oracle database using the same ORACLE_HOME?
Solution
This should be documented in the patch's README as the answer will vary with each patch.
If the patch's README is not documented, then the Post Install tasks should be run.
And this is what the OCTCPU09 README says:
3.3.3 Post Installation Instructions for Databases Created or Upgraded after Installation of CPUOct2009 in the Oracle Home
These instructions are for both non-RAC environments and RAC environments when a database is created or upgraded after the installation of CPUOct2009.
You must execute the steps in Section 3.3.2.1, "Loading Modified .sql Files into the Database" for any new database only if it was created by any of the following methods:
Using DBCA (Database Configuration Assistant) to select a sample database (General, Data Warehouse, Transaction Processing)
Using a script that was created by DBCA that creates a database from a sample database
Hope that helps.Point taken that it could vary by patchset, but those particular instructions quoted square exactly with what I had said. To quote with emphasis:
"You must execute the steps . . . for any new database *only if* it was created by any of the following methods . . ."
And what are those methods? Creating the database from a sample (pre-patch) database. If one uses dbca to create a 'custom' database, the resulting scripts will start from scratch with a CREATE DATABASE command - no pre-patch version sample or seed database involved.
:-)

With New Intel Security Patch - Laptop Overheating

Hi:
I just ran my Software Update application and installed the new version of iTunes (8.1.1) and a Intel Security Patch. Now my laptop is overheating with no applications running?!!?!?!
Is there a way to undo the installation of the security patch?
Thanks,
NeedPeace (nQuiet)

Hi studiomorphic1, and a warm welcome to the forums!
Not certain, but this can fix myriad Update problems...
Safe Boot from the HD, (holding Shift key down at bootup), it will try to repair your Disk Directory while the spinning radian is happening, so let it go, run Disk Utility in Applications>Utilities, then highlight your drive, click on Repair Permissions
Reboot.

New MS patch problems with Apache & SSL on NetWare web serve

This week our users began to experience problems accessing our Intranet based on a NetWare 6.5 box running Apache and using a Verisign SSL certificate. IE would say it was connecting but you would never get there. Firefox could get to the server but I had similar problems with Safari & Chrome.
I discovered that the MS security patch KB980436 had modified some portion of IE and was causing the problem. Uninstalling that patch put us back to where we could once again access our Intranet.
This seems to have something to do with how IE accesses using the SSL 443 port. When, internally, I accessed this same site using http instead of https it worked perfectly.
This patch was applied to Win XP and Win 7 with the same bad results.
If there is a more appropriate place for this post please move it there.

Have you tried the registry settings to go back to compatible mode? The
settings are listed in the MS KB article.

Missing Security Patches

1) Are there any useful facilities for admins or auditors to idenitfy misisng security patches associated with oracle EBS and supporting infrastructure? I know there are websoites saying which patches are out there but I could do with some sort of "this is what you are missing" type reports.
2) Do Oracle have any useful whitepapers on best practice patch management for EBS, i.e. how to test, steps for restore if its affects anything etc.

Link to 3.01 Beta with Security Patch?

I'm looking for a link to Safari version 3.01 Beta with Security Patch. Executable is dated 12/20/2007.
The new version 3.1 and WIPs all have a strange font problem, where it looks like they render the fonts twice. I didn't have this problem with 3.01 Beta with Security Patch and I would like to revert.
Update: The 3.1 version that just came out is also very slow. If I scroll a page to scan it, it's as slow as Firefox now. I can't believe they killed my favorite browser.
I sent many bug reports and posted here to no avail. 100% ignored. I guess I'll go back to Firefox.
See ya!

IMac suddenly unstable after last security patch

I don't remember exactly when I updated my OS with the last security patch, but I do know that before that time my machine was rock-solid, never crashing. Since that update it crashes about 4 or 5 times per day. Sometimes I get the gray screen of near death, sometimes I simply get a freeze. There's no other new software or hardware that could account for my problems - just the OS security patch.
The crashes appear to be random. Sometimes when I launch Safari, once or twice while reading mail, and several times while the machine was sitting idle. I'm not even sure where to start looking for a potential conflict. It's been a long, long time since I had to diagnose an unstable Mac. Any guidance would be appreciated.

The problems you're describing are identical to mine over the past few weeks. The computer will be running when I walk away. It goes to sleep (all black screen) and when I return and wiggle the mouse the screen will wake at full brightness, but often the clock in the top right stopped minutes or hours earlier. Can't force quit - have to hold the power button to restart.
After much research on a variety of boards, I deleted the InputManagers from User/Library/InputManagers and manually removed others. I've been running Console and individually tracking down each error that seems worth consideration. This topic needs more attention. I've contributed to another thread here:
