Apple has pulled a batch of security updates for Safari that it initially released yesterday. The updates were set to address several usability and security issues in the browser including some that could have led to code execution and data exfiltration.

While notes for the patches are still published in the security section of Apple’s support site, the actual update has disappeared from Apple’s Software Update mechanism, suggesting that the fixes were not ready for the public.

Whenever it’s made public, the update will affect three builds of Safari: 6.2.1, 7.1.1, and 8.0.1, on Lion, Mavericks, and Yosemite OSX, respectively.

Ultimately three Webkit issues will be fixed with the update.
