   Safari 9.1.2

   Agen G. N. Schmitz

   Apple has released [1]Safari 9.1.2 for OS X 10.9.5 Mavericks, 10.10.5
   Yosemite, and 10.11 to 10.11.5 El Capitan ' it's bundled into 10.11.6
   El Capitan (see '[2]Apple Releases OS X 10.11.6, iOS 9.3.3, tvOS 9.2.2,
   and watchOS 2.2.2,' 18 July 2016). The update addresses a number of
   vulnerabilities in WebKit, including multiple memory corruption issues,
   a timing issue that existed in processing SVG images, and a permissions
   issue related to handling of the location variable ' all of which could
   compromise user information if visiting a maliciously crafted Web site.
   Safari 9.1.2 is available only via Software Update. (Free, [3]release
   notes, 10.9+)
