Has there been any explicit statement from Apple that it won't be fixed on earlier OSes? What I see right now is a security update that fixes rootpipe for 10.10+ only while some other fixes in the release apply to 10.8.5+. Apple being Apple, I'd be surprised if there had been a statement, but it would be good to know. -Starchy
