The iOS 4.2.7 update for the Verizon iPhone 4 (CDMA) contains bug fixes and security updates.
The new Safari 5.0.5 is recommended by Apple for all Safari users (Mac OS X v10.5.8, Mac OS X v10.6.5 or later, Windows 7, Vista, XP) and includes the latest security updates. According to Apple's description, the update patches two holes in WebKit that allowed unexpected application termination or arbitrary code execution.

Apple also released Security Update 2011-002 for Snow Leopard, Leopard, and Leopard Server, which address the fraudulent SSL certificates issued by Comodo affiliate registration authority. Several fraudulent SSL certificates were issued by a Comodo affiliate registration authority. This could allow a man-in-the-middle attacker to redirect connections and intercept user credentials or other sensitive information. Apple addresses this issue by blacklisting the fraudulent certificates.
