[Albert Willis]

Apple released Security Update 2003-08-14 today. At this time, it's 
only available using Software Update. Users that have Software Update 
set to check automatically for updates (which is the default) will be 
notified of this update the next time Software Update is able to 
check.

 From Apple:

Security Update 2003-08-14 addresses a potential vulnerability in the 
fb_realpath() function which could allow a local or remote user to 
gain unauthorized root privileges to a system.
