Apple Mac OS X users may be at risk from an "extremely critical" vulnerability that remains un-patched.

As the popularity of Apple rises so does potential abusers. Apple, so far, has been able to set back and throw stones at MS's OS protected by it's lack of users and hence being ignored by virus writers, but that looks to be changing.
