Apple DNS patch doesn't fix DNS

If Apple keeps touting their (self-proclaimed) nigh-invulnerability as a sales feature, they really need to pay more attention to security than this.

Apple on Thursday released Security Update 2008-005, a collection of 17 fixes for security vulnerabilities in its Mac OS X operating system. Among the fixes is what looks to be a patch for the DNS cache poisoning vulnerability that security experts spent most of July warning about.

But according to security researcher Swa Frantzen from the SANS Internet Storm Center, Apple's fix hasn't quite done the trick. [From Apple Security Patch Flubs DNS Fix -- Mac OS X -- InformationWeek]
