News Story by Robert McMillan

APRIL 21, 2006 (IDG NEWS SERVICE) - A Mission Viejo, Calif., security researcher has posted code that exploits a number of newly discovered and unpatched bugs in the Mac OS X platform.

The software, posted Friday by independent researcher Tom Ferris, could be used to crash applications or even run unauthorized code on the Mac by taking advantage of bugs in the Safari browser and Mac OS X operating system. Ferris's "proof of concept" code exploits a total of seven bugs.
