Apple has released a major security update to current and previous versions of its OS X operating system.Apple on Wednesday released Mac OS X 10.4.11, a 70 Mbyte update for the Tiger version of its operating system that’s available through Apple’s Software Update program or as a standalone installer.

The update brings Apple’s Safari browser to version 3.0, which previously was available to Apple customers who upgraded to Leopard or who sought out and downloaded the software.It also adds RAW image decoding support for several cameras, including the Panasonic Lumix DMC-FZ50, the Leica V-Lux 1, the Olympus E-400, the Olympus EVOLT E410, the Olympus EVOLT E510, and theCanon EOS 40D.

And the update improves compatibility when using OpenType fonts in QuarkExpress, reliability when using VMware’s Fusion, and synchronization between iPhone andYahoo address books.Apple also released a security update for Safari 3 Beta for Windows XP and Vista on Wednesday. The patch fixes a tabbed browsing flaw that could expose user credentials, several cross-site scripting vulnerabilities, and a buffer overflow bug, among other issues.
