APPLE-SA-2010-06-21-1 iOS 4

Apple has released an update for iOS4 and fixes for WebKit vulnerabilities. Uses and administrators should read the important information below from Apple.

 Installation note:

These updates are only available through iTunes, and will not appear in your computer's Software Update application, or in the Apple Downloads site. Make sure you have an Internet connection and have installed the latest version of iTunes from www.apple.com/itunes/ iTunes will automatically check Apple's update server on its weekly schedule.
