# Mac OS 10.4: Improperly unmounted disks/hard drives | May 1st, 2007

This KB article is sort of a reminder:

Files copied to a disk that is improperly unmounted or disconnected may not appear on the disk when it is connected again. For example, if you disconnect an external FireWire-based hard disk from your computer without first unmounting the volume in the Finder or Disk Utility, this issue may occur. [...]
If this issue occurs, you should use Disk Utility to verify that the volume is free of directory damage. Repair the volume if any directory issues are detected. Then, copy the data to the volume again (and unmount it correctly).
This can happen if the disk cache is not emptied (”flushed”) due to an improper unmount of the destination volume. More …

# Security Update 2007-004 v 1.1 | May 1st, 2007

This update fixes bugs in the first release.

* Security Update 2007-004 v1.1 (Universal)

* Security Update 2007-004 v1.1 (PPC)

* Security Update 2007-004 v1.1 (10.3.9 Client)

Security Update 2007-004 v1.1 is now available. It includes the contents of Security Update 2007-004, plus the following fixes:

AirPort
Available for: Mac OS X v10.3.9
This update corrects an issue where the AirPort connection may be lost after waking from sleep. This issue only affects Mac OS X v10.3.9 (client) with Security Update 2007-004.

FTPServer
CVE-ID: CVE-2007-0745
Available for: Mac OS X Server v10.4.9
Impact: Users with ftp access may be able to navigate to directories outside the normal scope
Description: Security Update 2007-004 applied an incorrect ftp configuration file for Mac OS X Server v10.4.9 systems. Users with ftp access, who would normally be restricted to certain directories, may be able to access directories outside the normal scope. This update addresses the issue by restoring the correct version of the ftp configuration file. This issue only affects Mac OS X Server v10.4.9 with Security Update 2007-004.

Note:
Mac OS X v10.4.9 (client) and Mac OS X Server v10.3.9 systems that have installed Security Update 2007-004 do not require Security Update 2007-004 v1.1. If the security update has not yet been installed on these systems, then they should be updated using Security Update 2007-004 v1.1.
Since Mac OS X v10.4.9 (client) and Mac OS X Server v10.3.9 systems that have already installed Security Update 2007-004 are not affected, the Software Update utility will not display Security Update 2007-004 v1.1 for these systems.
