iPhoto 6.0.6 is now available and fixes the following security issue:

CVE-ID:  CVE-2007-0051
Available for:  Mac OS X version 10.3.9, and Mac OS X version
10.4.3 or later
Impact:  Subscribing to a maliciously-crafted photocast may lead
to arbitrary code execution
Description:  A format string vulnerability exists in iPhoto. By
enticing a user to subscribe to a maliciously-crafted photocast,
a remote attacker can trigger the vulnerability which may lead
to arbitrary code execution. This has been described on the
Month of Apple Bugs web site (MOAB-04-01-2007). This update
addresses the issue by performing additional validation while
handling photocast subscriptions. Credit to Kevin Finisterre of
DigitalMunition for reporting this issue.
