They make sure the affected systems are immediately fixed in order to stop the attackers from gaining control over the vulnerable system.

It has been known that the Apple web browser, Safari, usually blocks faulty Adobe Flash Player updates. Keeping this information in mind, Apple users may be a bit more secure than other OS users as Safari might also stop this particular faulty update.
