Apple has posted AirPort Update 2006-001 for Mac OS X v10.4.7 and Security Update 2006-005 for Mac OS X 10.4.7 and 10.3.9. The update is recommended for all users and improves the security of AirPort.

According to MacWorld, the update fixes vulnerabilities found in the company’s wireless drivers.

Quote:
The internal audit came as a result of claims by a senior researcher at SecureWorks that said he had revealed a vulnerability in Apple’s MacBook wireless software driver that would allow him to take control of the machine. SecureWorks later clarified its position and said it had used a third-party driver and not Apple’s driver.
