Among the fixes in Security Update 2009-001 are a patch for the Safari RSS vulnerability demonstrated by developer Brian Mastenbrook last January. Also fixed were a denial of service vulnerability in AFP server, a flaw in CoreText that could allow maliciously crafted Unicode content to execute arbitrary code, and a security hole that could let other local users access a user’s Downloads folder, and several other vulnerabilities.


It's for Leopard and Tiger on PPC and Intel Macs. Not sure if it's in Software Update yet or not - it's not showing up in mine.

You can download the Leopard one here:

If you need any of the other versions:
