Description:
Secunia Research has discovered a vulnerability in Safari, which can be exploited by malicious web sites to spoof dialog boxes.
Inactive windows can launch dialog boxes so they appear to be displayed by a web site in another window. This can be exploited by a malicious web site to show a dialog box, which seems to originate from a trusted web site.
Successful exploitation would normally require that a user is tricked into opening a link from a malicious web site to a trusted web site in a new window.
A test is available here:

The vulnerability has been confirmed in Safari 1.2.3 (v125.9). Other versions may also be affected.
Solution:
Apply Security Update 2004-12-02.
