SSL bug makes iOS and OS X vulnerable
This is a serious bug as an attacker could capture or modify data from your device via network by bypassing SSL/TLS verification. Apple released updates for patching this bug on both iOS 6 and iOS 7, which are 6.1.6 and 7.0.6 respectively. Currently, there is no update for OS X but be sure that there will be one pretty soon. Edit: It is available!
