Apple Security Update For Mac
Alongside, released today, Apple has also issued for macOS Sierra and macOS El Capitan. This update also fixes other serious security vulnerabilities, including an issue that could cause an application to run arbitrary code using kernel privileges by exploiting a vulnerability on the IOHIDFamily API. It also patches an issue that could lead to arbitrary code execution when playing a malicious sound file. The security update is included with macOS High Sierra 10.13.3 and it is also available as a separate security update for users of Sierra on 10.12.6 and El Capitan on 10.11.6. Check the Mac App Store for the updates.
Both security updates should appear in Software Update, but they can also be downloaded via Apple’s support Web site. The Leopard Security Update 2012-003 weighs in at 1.11 MB, while the Flashback Removal Security Update comes in at 1.23 MB. Both require an Intel-based Mac running Mac OS X 10.5.8.
Why Apple’s Update to the Mac mini Could Be a Big Deal Posted on September 12th, 2018 by The Mac mini is, for the most part, a 'hobby' computer. Sure, it's used in some datacenters, where people lease Mac minis to run as servers, but this diminutive Mac desktop computer is most widely used by home users wanting to run a simple server, often to host media, files, or to use for backups. It's small, yet it's sufficiently powerful for these tasks. I used one for a couple of years as my main desktop Mac. In late 2011, I bought the then current Mac mini and tricked it out with the then uncommon SSD for primary storage, a second hard drive (that model allowed you to configure it with two drives), the fastest processor available at the time, and extra RAM. That computer still runs as a home server: it hosts my media library using Plex and I use it for backups.

This is the longest I've had a Mac in use, and it's still running fine, even though it's on all the time. I considered upgrading to a newer model, mainly to have USB 3 connections, but realized that it's not really necessary for how I use this Mac. Most of my file transfers are over Wi-Fi, and it's connected to my router via Ethernet.
If Apple were to update the Mac mini, I might buy a new one depending on what features it offers. Possibilities Here's what's interesting. The Mac mini could be a very different Mac from what is currently available. Apple might choose to offer what many people call the 'mythical mid-sized tower Mac' - a small, upgradable Mac that can be opened as easily as the 'cheese grater' Mac Pro of yore. With that computer, you could easily swap hard drives, add PCI cards, and even add a second optical drive.
The side popped off easily, making upgrades simple. Imagine a Mac mini that you could upgrade, or at least add RAM to (as in previous models) or switch drives. A lot of people are skeptical about the idea of Apple ever releasing a Mac that is upgradable like that again, instead depending on external devices for upgrades, using Thunderbolt and USB-C connections, and collecting the Apple tax for extra RAM on build-to-order models. But there's another possibility for the Mac mini: a new type of macOS server. In January of this year, that they were changing the focus of macOS Server software. In one sense, this was dumbing it down, removing easy access to many of the services that professionals want in a small server. The company said that the coming version 'is changing to focus more on management of computers, devices, and storage on your network.'

It's not clear exactly what this means, but suggests that Apple might be coming out with a home server to manage multiple devices, store files, even perhaps serve as a local backup target for iOS devices.
