Thoughts? I understand the first part, but can someone explain the second part please of how this still makes a machine vulnerable without needing Safari?
I ask this because surely the user would have to decompress the file to begin with, and if the file is from a suspicious/malicious site, then a user would not choose to unzip it ?
Also, does OSX not give you a warning when you are unzipping a file if there are commands in it?
