Yup, I still have a PowerPC G4 stuck at OSX 10.5 in the basement and my wife still has a MacBook which is stuck at OSX 10.6 even though it's an intel machine. At the same time, I'm trying to use the G4 less and less because it sucks up a lot of power for the speed and my wife's laptop is due for a refresh after nearly 7 years. Already upgraded the RAM and hard drive and I don't want to sink any more into it as the case is starting to crack and the battery is about shot.

I noticed one thing: apple released the patch for every version from Lion on. 
they did not release a patch for snow leopard (which is a shame as one of my 
systems here won't support a higher OS). Believe me, there are still a huge 
number of machines that run OS X 10.5 and 10.6. I do know that Apple has End of 
Lifed support for those, but when it comes to security, there shouldn't be an 
end of life.  This is, of course, my opinion.

So if you just install the updates from Apple I think this gets resolved.

According to the article you can just go to the website

gotofail.com

to test if your browser is susceptible to the bug. I went with my Safari 6.1.1 
on OSX 10.8.5 and it said my browser was fine. So maybe some other update fixed 
it on OSX.

All,
This is not a trifling matter.
Perhaps? discussed here already, but sharing just in case.
My source is a very reliable technical reporter, so better safe than otherwise.
I might add there is wisdom for os x users too.

Subject: +[SurvPC] ATTENTION: Immediately install patch for iPhones,
    iPads and iPod Touch devices.

If you use an Apple mobile product. You had best fix it now - that is
about 100 million units worldwide. IF you do not fix it now, expect to
be hacked in the very near future.
