That doesn't sound like a security bug to me...
Well there is a big difference in security fixes. OS X and OSS OS's tend to have a lot of little low level security risks that take a quick little patch to fix. While Windows Security Modle is so flawed they are trying crazy to fix things and there solutions are rather complex because there software and other 3rd Party used these security holes to get around other problems in the system that never worked right. Most of the security holes in OSS are little things like buffer overflows where the programmer needs to put a limit on some pointers and arrays. While Microsofts has that too but the know every thime that is affected they have administer rights.
If something is so important that you feel the need to post it on the internet... It probably isn't that important.
