   Safari 10.1

   Agen G. N. Schmitz

   Apple has released [1]Safari 10.1 for OS X 10.10.5 Yosemite and 10.11.6
   El Capitan (macOS 10.12.4 Sierra also includes it; see '[2]Apple
   Releases macOS 10.12.4, watchOS 3.2, and tvOS 10.2,' 27 March 2017).
   The update adds the capability to drag the Show Downloads list into a
   standalone window, brings Paste and Go to the Safari Smart Search
   field's contextual menu, and resolves an issue that caused background
   tabs to suddenly appear in the foreground. It also deals with a number
   of [3]security vulnerabilities, including multiple memory corruption
   and validation issues related to WebKit, a spoofing and
   denial-of-service issue that existed in the handling of HTTP
   authentication, and address bar spoofing. Safari 10.1 is available only
   via Software Update. (Free, 10.10+)
