Apple has released OS X 10.7.4 and Safari. Both can be obtained via the Software Updates component of the Mac OS X Systems Preferences app.

According to Apple, the OS X Lion v10.7.4 Update includes fixes that:
° Resolve an issue in which the “Reopen windows when logging back in” setting is always enabled.

° Improve compatibility with certain British third-party USB keyboards.

° Addresses permission issues that may be caused if you use the Get Info inspector function “Apply to enclosed items…” on your home directory.

° Improve Internet sharing of PPPoE connections.

° Improve using a proxy auto-configuration (PAC) file.

° Address an issue that may prevent files from being saved to an SMB server.

° Improve printing to an SMB print queue.

° Improve performance when connecting to a WebDAV server.

° Enable automatic login for NIS accounts.

° Include RAW image compatibility for additional digital cameras.

° Improve the reliability of binding and logging into Active Directory accounts.

The OS X Lion 10.7.4 Update includes Safari 5.1.6, which contains stability improvements.

Safari 5.1.7 disables out-of-date versions of Adobe Flash Player. Out-of-date versions of Adobe Flash Player don’t include the latest security updates and will be disabled to help keep your Mac secure, according to Apple. If Safari 5.1.7 detects an out-of-date version of Flash Player on your system, you’ll see a dialog informing you that Flash Player has been disabled. The dialog provides the option to go directly to Adobe’s website, where you can download and install an updated version of Flash Player.
