Apple has treated its Mac OS X Leopard and Snow Leopard operating systems with a bunch of security updates, along with its Safari web browser.

The company released the bug fixes alongside a minor security update for its iOS mobile operating system platform as well.

According to the company the Mac OS X security update, which is available for both client and server editions of Mac OS X Leopard and Snow Leopard, patches a security vulnerability that might allow a hacker to intercept user credentials and other sensitive data.

“Several fraudulent SSL certificates were issued by a Comodo affiliate registration authority. This may allow a man-in-the- middle attacker to redirect connections and intercept user credentials or other sensitive information. This issue is addressed by blacklisting the fraudulent certificates,” the company explained in the release notes.

Apple also said that a similar update was also available for iOS devices in the form of iOS 4.3.2, which was released along with the security update for Mac.

The Mac OS X operating system and Safari browser update is available for download from Apple’s support website or from the Software Update feature on the Mac.
