Today Apple released two Yosemite security updates; one for early 2015 Mac, (the latest Macbook released March 9th) and one for us using Yosemite 10.10.2 or older.

The patch notes for both updates say that are “recommended for all users and improves the security of OS X,” but as of this writing we have no info on what the updates actually contain or fix.
