Apple releases Security patch for OS X vulnerability

Apple released security patch for OS X few hours ago

My understanding is the big problem, that was shared with iOS [see iOS 7.0.6 SSL/TLS problem for more on iOS issue ] only affected Mavericks, though I could certainly be in error on that, and this patch fixes more than that single issue.
