OK, but there's no bug in the program that's exploitable in itself. The
downloaded malware doesn't execute automatically without user input. Safari
is doing exactly what it's designed to do. It's a configuration problem,
rather like when the Windows operating system was still being shipped to
users in what I called "suicide mode," not a bug in the program.
Should Safari be configured differently by default? I certainly think so;
but this isn't really a bug.
