And I ask you where is the expoit information? What is the
vulnerability? Do exploits exist? Can you test if you are vulnerability?
These is a site that list patches..not the same thing.  Interesting that
you think they are the same. Apple doesn't follow Full-Disclourse, that
was my point. 

I didn't mean they don't patch...
