Oh, so coool, and so unsecure...
"Apple Computer has become a target for new attacks? The appearance of a rootkit109 called Opener in October 2004, serves to illustrate the growth in vulnerability research on the OS X platform? The various OS X vulnerabilities allow attackers to carry out information disclosure, authentication bypass, code execution, privilege escalation, and DoS attacks. Symantec believes that as the popularity of Apple's new platform continues to grow, so too will the number of attacks directed at it," the report said.

Follow on report, gee from ZDNet too, gosh oh golly gee.

Seems Apple is soooooo cool, nobody worries about security.

But since it's Apple, who needs to, right?
