Flaws found in Safari browser for Windows

Juan Pablo Lopez Yacubian said the vulnerabilities could allow hackers to remotely take control of a victim's computer. He described the most serious flaw as a vulnerability in the Safari 3.1 browser for Windows which allows a hacker to "falsify the web address and enter another page or content".
