Included is a fix so that people can't execute arbitrary code in a *font* installation.

Who knew a watch needs *fonts*?

Too bad the watch that needs fonts has no battery life... But, back to the topic, Apple gear has actually been usually very secure. This kind of flaw, this early in a product cycle, does not bode well for the future of Apple if this is the kind of quality the firm puts out after Jobs.
