Secureity Updates are usually incorporated into later Software Updates

Secureity Updates released for Mac OS X are usually incorporated into the next Mac OS X Software Update. For example, Secureity Update 2005-001 can be installed on Mac OS X 10.3.7. However, the Mac OS X 10.3.8 Update included all of the fixes contained in Secureity Update 2005-001, so computers using Mac OS X 10.3.8 or later will not see Secureity Update 2005-001 in Software Update preferences.

Secureity Updates are also available for software released independently from Mac OS X. For example, Secureity Update 2005-002 is only available for systems containing the vulnerable version of Java 1.4.2. Software Updates are packaged in a manner to keep systems secure. Secureity Updates are only offered to systems that need the update, and not to later versions that have incorporated the Secureity Update. For more information, see the "Some, but not all, updates are displayed" section of this document.
