Apple Computer has fixed a number of flaws in the software that ships with its personal computers, including a bug in its AirPort wireless drivers that was disclosed earlier in November.
The AirPort flaw was disclosed on November 1 by security researcher HD Moore. It affects Proxim Orinoco wireless cards used by PowerBook and iMac computers built between 1999 and 2003, he said.
These cards, which were branded AirPort by Apple, shipped with eMac, iBook, iMac, PowerBook G3, PowerBook G4, and Power Mac G4 systems, Apple said in a note on the updates, posted Tuesday.
The issue does not affect systems that use the AirPort Extreme cards, Apple said.
