Apple issues monster security patch

Matthew Broersma writes in TechWorld that:

Apple Computer has released its second major security update in as many weeks, fixing 20 bugs in the "Jaguar" version of the Mac OS X operating system. The most serious of the flaws could allow remote attacks, Apple said.

This week's patch is designed for desktop and server versions of OS X 10.3.9, an update released in mid-April as Apple geared up for the launch of OS X 10.4, nicknamed Tiger. Software vendors often patch a large number of bugs in new software releases, then issue a patch fixing the same bugs in older versions of the product.
