Linux and Apple OS X users are usually insulated from the security woes of their Microsoft Windows counterparts, but that doesn’t seem to be the case with a recent vulnerability involving the handling of Uniform Resource Identifier protocols. Those protocols instruct a browser to perform certain tasks. The most common task would be “http” to retrieve a Web page.
