This article is a "second" part of :

Safari for windows in prone vulnerable to a null pointer deference
in protocols handlers http, ftp and SafariURL.
The issue is triggered when a user in click a specially crafted link
with malformed uri that causess a NULL pointer derefence safari,
and will result in loss of availability for the browser.
In the case of SafariURL is very curious, because we can compose
a malformed url like SafariIRL://http://../ or ftp://../ and wen
try to open it whith safari,safari opens a new windows , and wen
we try to close this new one,clicking in the 'X' the window is
closed, but it reopens again ...
sO why it opens again in a infinite loop?
Take a look of posible source code of the fucnction.
in any place of the code before using a pointer,
it check that it is not equal to NULL:

Part of code affected
######################
CFURLRef safariURL = nil;
OSStatus
err = LSFindApplicationForInfo(kLSUnknownCreator,
CFSTR("com.apple.Safari"), nil, nil, &safariURL);if (err != noErr)
displayErrorAndQuit(@"Unable
to locate Safari", @"Nightly builds of WebKit require Safari to run.
Please check that it is available and then try again.");
NSBundle *safariBundle = [NSBundle bundleWithPath:[(NSURL *)safariURL path]];
CFRelease(safariURL);
return safariBundle; }
