IE Patch Going to Fix The Security Issue Involving Safari This Tuesday?
Well, got to admit, the title is weird - Microsoft fix Safari issue with IE patch.
But these are the words in news "Patch Tuesday this month ... The Internet Explorer bulletin is expected to be cumulative and might include some remediation for the Safari for Windows vulnerability disclosed last month by Nitesh Dhanjani". It's claimed that IE patch intends to help remediation for Safari vulnerability. This goes against all common sense. When did Microsoft become a charity?
In the advisory Microsoft say "may include releasing a security update through the security update release process", also they acknowledge "Aviv Raff for working with us and reporting the blended threat of Safari and Microsoft Internet Explorer". In the Aviv Raff side, he is also indicating "I've reported this issue to Microsoft over a week ago", and "I've decided to work with Microsoft on this issue". The advisory was published on May 30, 2008.
(So, the discovery by Aviv Raff is the issue here, intead of the discovery by Nitesh Dhanjani. The former involves both IE and Safari, and the latter only involves Safari. More details here.)
