Apple today updated Safari to version 5.1, patching 58 security vulnerabilities and adding several new features, including sandboxing on Mac OS X 10.7.

Safari 5.1 is the browser bundled with Lion, the operating system Apple released earlier today, but it will also run on Mac OS X 10.6, aka Snow Leopard. A separate Safari update to version 5.0.6 was also issued today for users running Mac OS X 10.5, or Leopard.

The update patched a total of 58 flaws in Safari, 14 of them specific to the Windows edition, one that affected only the Mac version, and 44 that impact both platforms. Forty-seven of the 58 were accompanied by Apple’s “arbitrary code execution” phrasing, indicating that the company considered them critical. Unlike rival Microsoft, Apple does not tag vulnerabilities with threat-level labels.

Lets face it unless you want the Italian operator logo’s there isn’t really much of value to the average joe on Cydia or ICY, The games are about as appealing as susan boyle and a jar of nutella and about as plentyfull as common sense at Microsoft!

Enter Installous, The App store for Cracked IPA’s (iPhone Apps).

Installous takes all the effort out of sourcing, downloading and syncing apps and you can even download apps over EDGE or 3G (Yeah.. even ones over 10mb!!).

Anyway, If you want to install it (strictly for research purposes) follow the following instructions…

  1. Open Cydia.
  2. Go to Manage.
  3. Click Sources.
  4. Click “Edit” in the top right hand corner.
  5. Click “Add” in the top left hand corner.
  6. Enter the following URL  http://cydia.hackulo.us
  7. Click “Add Source”.
  8. Come out of Cydia and go back in (to refresh source list)
  9. Click “Search”
  10. Type in installous
  11. Click install :-)

IMPORTANT: You must uninstall Safari DL Plugin first, otherwise you will get a source error while trying to install this application!

Happy App’ing,

Mark
