Update closes critical Safari hole on Mac OS X

The update to Safari 5.1.1 closes numerous holes, but the one with the ID CVE-2011-3230 is especially critical – firstly, because it is very easy to exploit, and secondly, because public demonstrations of it are already in circulation. At its simplest, a web site can use a basic JavaScript command to launch arbitrary programs on Macs. The attack is possible because LaunchServices doesn't handle local file://URLs properly and instead launches the assigned program.
