Safari 5.1

Safari 5.1 is verschenen. In deze uitgave van Apples browser worden maar liefst 58 beveiligingslekken dichtgeplakt. De meeste kwetsbaarheden zitten in de WebKit rendering engine, maar ook andere onderdelen van Safari krijgen een pleister.

Onder andere het openen van speciaal geprepareerde pdf-bestanden en tiff-afbeeldingen en het bezoeken van kwaadaardige websites kon leiden tot het uitvoeren van schadelijke code. Een deel van de kwetsbaarheden in Safari zit alleen in de Windows-versie.

Verder zitten er ook enkele nieuwe functies in Safari 5.1. Zo heeft Apples browser in deze versie een 'leeslijst' (klik op het brilletje links op de bladwijzerwerkbalk) waar je interessante websites aan toe kunt voegen om ze later te bekijken als je nu even geen tijd hebt. Eveneens nieuw is dat Safari nu sessies kan hervatten, zodat bij het starten de websites van de vorige keer worden geopend (instellen in paneel Algemeen).

De privacy is beter gewaarborgd door het nieuwe paneel Privacy waarin je makkelijk alle gegevens kunt verwijderen die websites op je computer achterlaten. Ook cookies van derde partijen en adverteerders kunnen hier geblokkeerd worden.

Gebruikers van het nieuwe Mac OS X Lion krijgen bovendien sandbox-beveiliging van Safari, zodat ze beter beschermd worden tegen alle gevaren op internet. Deze bescherming zit niet in de versies voor Windows of oudere Mac OS X varianten.

Ten slotte zijn de stabiliteit van Safari en de ondersteuning voor HTML5 en CSS3 verbeterd, zijn de zoekopties uitgebreid, is veilig automatisch aanvullen geïmplementeerd en kunnen downloads naar het bureaublad gesleept worden.

Safari 5.1 is de standaard browser voor Mac OS X die los is te downloaden voor Windows XP, Vista en 7.

Release notes:

Deze update bevat nieuwe functies, waaronder:

  • Leeslijst: U kunt eenvoudig webpagina's en koppelingen aan uw leeslijst toevoegen, zodat u deze kunt bekijken wanneer u er tijd voor hebt.
  • Nieuwe procesarchitectuur: Safari is opnieuw geprogrammeerd, waardoor de stabiliteit verbeterd is en de reactiesnelheid is verhoogd. 
  • Hervatten: In het paneel 'Algemeen' van de Safari-voorkeuren kunt u instellen dat bij het starten van Safari de vensters worden geopend die in de laatste browsersessie geopend waren.
  • Meer privacy: Via het nieuwe paneel 'Privacy' in de Safari-voorkeuren kunt u eenvoudig gegevens verwijderen die websites mogelijk op uw computer achterlaten. 

Andere verbeteringen: 

  • Veilig automatisch vullen: Met Safari kunt u formulieren snel invullen en uw persoonlijke gegevens privé houden. 
  • Zoekoptie: Wanneer u zoekt in Safari, kunt u opgeven of u wilt zoeken naar tekst die de tekst bevat die u in het zoekveld typt of naar tekst die met deze zoektekst begint. 
  • Downloads slepen: U kunt nu onderdelen uit het venster 'Downloads' slepen, zodat u gedownloade bestanden snel en eenvoudig op het bureaublad kunt plaatsen.
  • Geavanceerde webtechnologieën: Safari biedt nu ondersteuning voor schermvullende webpagina's, het cachen van media met behulp van de HTML5-programmacache, MathML, Web Open Font Format, automatische woordafbreking volgens CSS3, verticale tekst volgens CSS3, tekstbenadrukking volgens CSS3, Window.onError en opgemaakte XML-bestanden.
  • Nieuwe extensie-API's: Ontwikkelaars kunnen nu gebruikmaken van nieuwe Safari-extensieondersteuning voor popovers, menu's, nieuwe eventklassen en interactie met Reader.
  • CFNetwork

    Available for: Windows 7, Vista, XP SP2 or later

    Impact: Visiting a maliciously crafted website may lead to a cross-site scripting attack

    Description: In certain situations, Safari may treat a file as HTML, even if it is served with the 'text/plain' content type. This may lead to a cross-site scripting attack on sites that allow untrusted users to post text files. This issue is addressed through improved handling of 'text/plain' content.
