A Macbook Pro with the latest security updates was hacked on a hacking contest.
Macaulay, a software engineer, was able to hack into a MacBook
through a zero-day security hole in Apple’s Safari browser.

Dai Zovi, a security researcher until recently with Matasano Security who has
previously been credited by Apple for finding flaws in Mac software, found the
Safari vulnerability and wrote the exploit overnight in about 9 hours!

Currently, every copy of OS X out there now is vulnerable to this!

We would expect Apple to issue a update for Safari to close this hole ASAP.
CanSecWest’s contest has helped to make Safari more secure.

CanSecWest blog stated that technical details will be forthcoming as the winner
works out the release!
