Safe Terminal Description

Safe Terminal - Minimizes Terminal utility script executions (for recent security issue) Safe Terminal fixes a security weakness with Mac OS X Terminal utility, when it execute shell scripts without the user permission.If Safari "Open safe files after download" is enabled, its possible to create malicious shell scripts that will be executed by the Terminal automatically after you download them. It is also possible to create malicious shell scripts that look like a document or a folder, that will be executed by Terminal on double click without warning.After Safe Terminal is installed, the Terminal utility will not execute any file, even if "Open safe files after download" option in Safari is enabled. However, the usage of the Terminal to type and run commands is not effected in any way.What's New in This Release:· Show an alert before executing a shell script.· test.command display also a text message.· Improved documentation.
