Apple quietly released a slew of updates yesterday evening, patching quite a few holes on both the Tiger and Leopard fronts. The newly released updates are available free of charge for all Mac users running Mac OS X 10.4 (Tiger) or Mac OS X 10.5 (Leopard), Client and Server.
Apple's Support section reveals that the Security Update 2009-001 for Leopard and Tiger “is recommended for all users and improves the security of Mac OS X.” Apple also confirms that “previous security updates have been incorporated into this security update.” Talking about Security Update 2009-001 Server, Apple again notes that installing the new software is highly recommended for all servers as it “improves the security of Mac OS X [Server].”
The company behind the Mac operating system also links to a knowledge base article detailing the full contents of the 2009-001 Security Update for Tiger and Leopard.
